Communication with students and between students is important to learning. Setting guidelines from the beginning will help the learning process and create a sense of community and engagement among the students.

We need to understand that different age groups learn differently. We need to set guidelines for communication and hold every student to them and encourage participation from all students.

I learned about the importance of establishing and clear and concise standard of online communication and the consequences of not following the rules.

I have learned about the different formats of communication available using technology for online education. I'll research them to find the ones that will work the best for myself and the students, checking often to determine if the students needs are being met.
