Great points.  I don't anticipate students that will disrupt, but I do anticipate those that are likely to not participate or those that will procrastinate.  I liked the strategies suggested.

In Module 4, there were great strategies for dealing with problems that may arise - the biggest one that I anticipate is the procrastinators.  I like the strategies for dealing with their excuses.

I am concerned about the recommendation to email students with feedback on how they did with engaging in online discussions, and let them know their scores.  I have about 120 students.  That is lots of emails to compose and give specific feedback.  

I love the idea of establishing a relationship with the learners.  Since I already have one, I can use these ideas to maintain.  I liked the ideas of how to reach out to a student who seems to be uninvolved.

I am taking this course to help me continue to teach my students as we transition to an online learning environment.  The first module did not teach me much of what I need to know for this, but I am excited to continue learning.
