1) Critical thinking and problem solving can help students analyze information, form good judgements and problem solve. 

2) If students are guided on the use of these frameworks they will be useful to them for finding effective solutions to problems and ultimately helping the student to make good decisions regarding specific issues.  

I feel it is important to engage students by keeping them engaged in discussions, activities, critical thinking exercisesl important to keep the conversation moving forward by adding new focuses.

Developing trust and respect in an online format can be done through sharing teaching experiences and credentials with students.  This will reinforce their confidence in their professor guiding class content and interactions.
