Communication is key 

It is important to know your students and keep communication open with students 

This is true the best form of communication with students is by email. 

I learn differences between synchronous and asynchronous learning and the importance of keeping students engaged. 

Assessments should be clear, fair, and varied, avoiding trick questions while promoting critical thinking and understanding. 

Assess students understanding, evaluate teaching effectiveness, identify improvements, and determine what strategies worked or failed. 

Use technology makes questioning engaging, reduces silence, and encourages shy students to participate and share their ideas. 

Understanding learning styles match teaching to student strengths. In a hands on clinical, clinical setting, introduction learning styles during orientation can better support diverse learners success. 

Building connections online matters. Instructors should share about themselves and encourage students to do the same, creating relationships, trust, and a more supportive learning environment. 

Clear structure, consistent modules, and engaging activities improve online learning. Instructor presence builds connection. Balance flexibility with accountability to keep students motivate, responsible, and successfully progressing.
