Developing course strategies. Communicating with students and how to deal with undesirable behavior. Minimizing student attrition. I will have to learn and build on these skills quick in order to be an effective online instructor.

I learned the challenges we face as educators, when dealing with asynchronous and synchronous learning. How to foster participation and developing forums.

Providing my Biography and allowing students to share their biography will open the door in how we establish communication and aid in our learning/problem solving. Student will feel comfortable communicating with the instructor and peers at all times will help their success.

I learned the importance of CMS Structure and areas I should better myself in. I need to be able to provide students with clear course content and help students solve technical issues to keep students from getting frustrated.

To learn from my mistakes. Make note of mistake and steps to correct.  Staying focused, organized and prepared will help me to build confidence with the students. My goal is to build and prepare them too successfully complete this course and earn there Certification.

Moving thru out the classroom will be something I plan to do more. Observing that I have the attention of my class will be something I want to build on.

My view on working with challenging students, has changed. It could possibly be me. I will definitely consider this next time when dealing with challenging students. 

Sounds like Syllabus is the key.
