Learning that students will bring with them into the e-learning environment behavioral traits inherent to their personality traits. This is helpful because it canhelp instructors learn how to interact with students. 

Strategies for participation in the asynchronous sessions was helpful to learn. Specifically how to maintain and present the discussion board was helpful. Providing feedback to learners and how to keep them engagedwithout rambling is a good way to ensure the discussion stays on topic and within the realm of the topics covered. 

Establishig relationships was a good topic to learn. I do well with connecting with students, but this term I am learning to dig deeper as I have been using Yellowdig. Some ways to do that are to create other discussion board topics not solely related to the weekly topic. Covering topics that have students engage and give personal experiences is one way to really allow students engage. 

Really comprehending and getting to know the course is important. Focusing on all aspects of the course, but one that stood out to me were instructional strategies. I look at those as ways to help me better teach the course. It also provides focus as an instructor on the most important aspects of the cirriculum.
