James, You bring up some great points. We do have to support students and make sure they can use the necessary software. Alleviating as much technology anxiety as possible, it a great thing. Thanks for your input.

Formative Course Evaluations
Deborah, Great questions to ask. I use the Start, Stop, Continue methods. I ask "What should I start doing?" "What should I stop doing?" and "What should I continue to do?" If I can't stop doing what they request, I tell them why. I typically cannot stop doing something if it connects directly to the learning objectives. But, we have to explain that.

Donna, I also try to call students by name to help them feel like they are a person and not just another number in a large online course. Keep it up!

Tomi, Yes, they are kind of a checklist, but so much more. The criteria and connection to the objectives enhance the rubric's importance. Thanks!
