Technology Communication Tools

Dr. Ruby, Thanks for your input. Concise, yet you bring up some very good points. We do need tools that are easy for all to use. The tech support is essential too so that the instructor does not have to spend time with that or get "blamed" when technology does not work. Thanks!

Resources for Developing Rubrics

Faith , Can you elaborate about how to consider alternative ways of using your rubric? This caught my attention and I'd like to see what else you have to share. Thanks!

Advantages of Rubrics

Melinda , I agree. When I teach business communication, the rubrics are even more helpful to me than other courses I have taught due to the writing factor. Thanks!

Formative Course Evaluations

Emry, Connecting with those students that disengage, is important. The sooner you can do this, the better. We don't want them to get too far behind or disengaged. Thanks for your input.

Creating Boundaries

Emry, Emphasizing professionalism is important throughout the course. Setting the stage early and helping students understand those "rules" is essential. Nice job.

Technology Support for Students

Emry, but, don't you think "instant" can get us in trouble sometimes? I agree though that we need to provide students with the resources they need to reach the learning outcomes. We use SafeAssign which is like TurnItIn. Thanks for your input.

Technology Communication Tools

Donna, Technology communication tools are key elements to the online environment and it is important to make sure the instructor and students can benefit from them and use them easily. I do use a FAQ discussion board for all questions about the course and students can email me if personal questions. Thanks for your input.
