Activity

Communication, collaboration and the use of rubrics are all key components.  

 

Rules of communication must be provided upfront. Show examples of good and poor communication and always use good communication skills.

I must model appropriate communication and setting standards early in the course is a must.

Students can learn and communicate through various outlets.  Be sure to test them and know what resources the students will need to make it successful.

 

Course revision and improvement only make your course stronger.

With any assessment, feedback must be provided to students to help their learning.  Providing feedback reinforces their learning. 

Providing clear instructions and scaffolding are crucial to student success.

 

Students need consistency.  Keep the course flow the same throughout.  Students will know what to expect and continue to look.

 

I learned in this module that students online are sometimes like those in the classroom.  Meaning, you will have some that try to be disruptive and likewise some that will hide in the background.  Keeping the reigns of the class will sometimes still be a challenge but is totally doable.

 

I liked thinking about the different ways to incorporate synchronous and asynchronous discussions in an online class.  Normally I have always seen asynchronous.
