Activity
I do not think I have given the importance of critical thinking enough emphasis in an online environment. Giving the students active problems to solve rather than easy test-like review questions seems much more effective.
I now understand the importance of using a rubric for the learner's sake. It also provides consistency and ease for the instructor too
I understand that I need to have a plan B in case technology fails
I have learned that students need to be responsible and active in acquiring their knowledge in an online setting and being a "sage on a stage" does not work as well for them.
Managing a classroom is much like managing employees
I plan to be a Guide in the classroom and this course has shown me the importance of setting expectations, providing specific feedback, and modeling the behaviors I want to see reflected by my students.
