It is important to learn and understand about different personality traits, especially as an instructor. Assessing the students personality is beneficial.

Virtual internships promote a flexible work environment and can be accomodating for a lot individuals for various reasons.

I wasn't aware that virtual internships existed prior to this module. I feel that this could be a viable option for our students and can be very beneficial.

It is important to provide various interactive opportunitites for students for student-teacher and student -student. Getting ahead and providing social engagement from the beginning is imperative. This helps to builf trust and a rapport with the students.

written assignments, presentations, concept maps and quizzes are great examples of ways to assess students and are effective in an online learning environment

The use of quizzes allows for learners an opportunity to learn the course content and have an assessment of what they learned. 

I like the explanation and ideas for synchronous and asyncronous courses.  It's important to identify the needs of the students and how much time a synscronous session will take in designing the course.

it is important for learners to find it easy to locate and access information in the course. Utilizing links assists with this- navigational simplicity
