I learned the benefits, and potential disadvantages, of using holistic assessments for student work.

Great information reguarding challenging students 

Basic information on the various learning types and what is needed for them to be successful

I learned that online learners still need a variety of media and options for interacting. I also learned several ways of engagement that I had not previously considered.

I learned about the importance of working to develop a realtionship with the students, which is very difficult for me when it comes to virtual classes.

It never occurred to me that some students may not be 100% familiar and comfortable with the CMS, so I have never thought to orient them to it. Likewise, I didn't realize all the things that I needed to know, such as how to print out reports.
