Student Self-Analysis

DANA, Great post. You have to really make students aware of their strengths and use them not use the strengths of other to always be their tool. Students need to be able to evaluate themselves and make adjustments. This isn't easy when everyone gets a trophy. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Selecting Appropriate Course Content

Cynthia, I would say that It may be more of the design than the content. If both courses are the same just different in delivery they must have the same outcomes. This can be tricky. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Student Self-Analysis

DANA, You make such a great point. We as instructors have to guide and facilitate students through the self analysis. There is a second step to the self-analysis and that is what to do with it! Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Student Self-Analysis

Gracie, I agree. I just heard about a high school that gave their students ipads and told them they didn't have to go to school. They didn't address the need for guidance with learning particularly online learning. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson
