While I am already familiar with a variety of active learning techniques for the face-to-face environment, this module gave me more ideas for active learning techniques for the online environment. It also described ways that students' smartphones can be utilized for activities.

I was surprised to learn that it helps to motivate students if the first few assessments of the term are non-graded. I will definitely experiment with this in my classroom!

From this module I learned that I should anticipate potential resistance from my institution and the students as I evolve into using more active learning methods, but that perseverance will bring rewards in greater student achievement and satisfaction.

I have been using active learning techniques through the past year and found them very effective. This module has given me an understanding of the "why" behind what I am already doing.

Professional development benefits not only educators but also students, who reap the benefits. 

It is important to provide timely feedback within 24 hours (business days) and within 48 hours non-business days.  

Be both organized and disciplined. Set specific days and times to complete online and offline tasks. 

Set up a dedicated place to perform online and offline tasks. Manage time better by allocating a set amount of time within a pre-set, structured schedule to perform all tasks. Avoid known distractions.

Hello everybody, this module Focus on creating an environment that gives all students the opportunity to learn and grow within the class. Establish netiquette early, and monitor discussion posts closely to ensure that those rules are being followed. Keep a close eye on all students participation and achievement to decrease attrition as much as possible throughout the course of the class.

Hello Everybody, in this module i consider that this experience led me to realize that participating in an online course can be challenging for some students, particularly given their varying schedules, paces, and communication styles. In my own teaching, I will strive to create clear and approachable forums, provide space for everyone to contribute, and offer timely feedback, as a respectful and prompt response can make a significant difference in a student's motivation.
