Dynamic learning allows instructors to use the best of both worlds. Student in the world today are engulfed in technology, by using a dynamic learning style we are putting them in their element and making it familiar to them.

I've learned more about scaffolding and how dynamic instruction benefits both student and teacher.

One key takeaway I’ve gained from this topic is how the integration of various “realities” — such as augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR) — can enhance engagement and interactivity in online courses. These tools create immersive experiences that help learners visualize complex concepts and apply them in a simulated environment.

For example, I plan to apply AR in a course by allowing learners to interact with 3D models of designs directly on their devices. This approach can make abstract ideas more tangible and foster better comprehension. Additionally, incorporating VR simulations for scenarios like user testing… >>>

Labs can be done asynchronously and still have the enriching coursework as a face to face course.

Use of technology can supplement learning and keep the course more engaging.

It is important that instructors understand there are a variety of methods to teach and different styles of learners.  Instructors must modify coursework to adjust to the learners while still delivering content in an engaging manner.

Synchronous and asynchronous learning has benefits and difficulties.  The responsibility is on both the instructor to provide an engaging course and student to be motivated with both partneringto have a rich experience.

Faculty can be creative when designing the course by incorporating a variety of media strategies in online courses. Well-chosen audio and visual content increases student engagement while meeting the objectives of the course. The process needs to be methodical to ensure all aspects of course design are included.

I appreciated the outline of ISD.

Multiple attempts at lower stake quizzes help student to gain knowledge and confidence for midterms and finals.
