Communicating online has to be as interactive as in-person to make the students feel heard and connected.

Technology is essential for an online course.  You can use synchronized scheduled meetings based out of a cell instead of a computer. 

You have to be able to reach the student on a different level to create an environment where they feel they are in the classroom even online.

Emotional intelligence is important to keep the learner engaged in school and helps identify the EI skills needed to manage self.

Today with all the technologies the EI skill is being lost by the younger generation.  As an instructor, we need to have the emotional intelligence to deal with students and being able to connect to their situations.

 

Discussion Comment

Absolutely, we are not suppose to be their buddy.  They have thier classmates as their buddy.  We can be caring and compassionate therefore, friendly.

The point systems is a hard topic to understand.  But I see the benefit in helping the students dedicate time to studying for the points.

Having the ability to show empathy to ecah students is an effective tool, I have used in class.
