I have a few students who struggle with good time management. I will utilize what I've learned through this course to help motivate them to become more organized with their time. I will encourage them to create short-term and long-term goals for the day, week, month, and class.

In order to establish a mutually respectful environment we should indicate what we expected of all student.  Then is important sign about discuss tone, appropiate language, and other develop protocols to uphold respectful and courteous comunications

Throughout this module, I’ve realized how important it is to balance structure and flexibility in online learning. One best practice I’ve found effective is setting clear expectations early and offering students multiple ways to engage—whether through discussions, videos, or assignments.

My action plan moving forward includes integrating more frequent check-ins and formative feedback to keep students motivated and on track. One challenge I often face is encouraging participation from quieter students, but I’m learning that personalized, private encouragement can make a big difference.

Success comes when students start taking ownership of their learning—when they ask questions, manage their time well,… >>>

Just sharing 1 challenge and that's language barriers. I had one student that didn't speak English at all and when lecturing I felt like she was just staring off into space. I had to use a translator with her to make sure she understood what I had just went over, I also informed her that more time was going to have to be put in by her to translate her reading from Spanish to English. I informed her that we could not put our assignments or quizzes or test in another language. She put in the work. When doing over… >>>

I actually was shocked by the information provided in the assessment. It revealed a variety of information and research causing readers to brainstorm and analyze the content. It was engaging, up to date with current events also filled with a variety of topics and interests. Furthermore,  the assessment initiates readers to analyze and develop open discussions and gives explanations that complement the research. 

I plan to use more social media in my online classes!

My biggest challenge with social media is blogging and networking. I learned the different between the two I do. #AndILearnedHowToPostOnMyInstagramPagesAndAllThatOtherButMyBiggestChallengeWasBloggingNowILearnedHowToBlockAndIwould be doing it in the near future. 

I'm interested in blogging. I have not done it yet. But I do encourage my students those that are interested in blogging or have done so to blog about their practice and what they do. I think it gives them more clarity on the direction they're going in and it can be impactive to their learning abilities.

Learning how to blog has struck an interest with me. I was always curious about it. This is cleared things up for being so in the near future I will be blogging from here on out and showing my thoughts with my student.

I have had success with checking on the students post discussions.

 I learned that it is important to have clear guidelines on communication.

My best practices is follow through and hold students accountable for the assignments.

I learned a lot

The goal of communication rubrics is to provide consistent and clear guidance to ensure fair and consistent evaluation of student communication.

The differences between individuals provides the greatest difficulty in communicating. Since the actual words represent less that 10% of communication, students and teachers need to be clear and deliberate in their communication to limit misunderstanding.

Setting guidelines for online communication provides for clear and effective communications while minimizing the chances for inappropriate or 

Selection of communications tools is vital to effective online teaching. It is only through the tools used that students understand as there is little, if any, direct interaction to clarify meaning. Ineffective tools greatly slows the process.

I'm ignorant towards the benefit of social media. It never has been an interest of mine personally. Professionally, perhaps.

I thought the section about intrinsic motivation was incredibly insightful. Inspiring the students to cultivate motivation from within is something we should all strive for as instructors. 

The leveraging of technology section was also great. It made me consider how best to deliver content to online learners.
