Collaboration and Workload Strategies

Cyndy, Accountability is a big deal for students and for instructors. We have to both be in this together. It is important to let students know you'll keep up "your side of the bargain," but they have to keep up their side as well. Thanks!

Course Design and Workload Management

Cyndy, Setting aside time specifically for coursework is an excellent idea. We have to make sure we limit our interruptions during this time as well. Self-motivation plays an essential role in this process as well. Thanks!

Time Management Skills

Cyndy, You are right. Each class has it's own culture and we have to understand all students/groups of students are different. I've been teaching online since 1999. . .believe me, I've seen a lot of differences. Thanks for your input.

Information Management Skills

Anthony, Sounds like you are a planner. This is good. We do have to plan ahead (as do the students) and not procrastinate. Knowing your technology is also a good thing. Thank you.

Generational Roles

Stephanie, If we (or the students or any individual) doesn't understand our own weaknesses, how can we improve. And, you are right, we adapt. We provide content in a variety of ways, we communicate in a variety of ways, etc. Thanks for your input.

Formative Course Evaluations

Cyndy, When the "good and bad" are communicated in a professional manner, it should be more like constructive criticism. This is great practice for the students. They need to understand how to provide feedback to others constructively. Thanks!
