Esther, Providing such an explanation should make students think about what they are saying and providing your email address to "talk" more is a good strategy. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Ester, Nice list, Ester. You have made me thinks about a few things I may not be stressing enough in this forum and that the social sites that can be utilized as communication tools as well. You're right in that different tools are appropriate for different content (i.e., whiteboard and math). Thanks!

Matthew, Good list. These all are key factors in the success of an online course. You are right in your statement abour frustration. Students who are frustrated don't engage in the learning process and many times "shut down." Thanks!
Pamela, Thanks! Sometimes a person will use a word that sticks with us. Someone must have told me that the technology should be "transparent" and it stuck with me. ;-)
Pamela, Yes, does the technology move us forward. We need to make sure the ease of use is at the right level and students and the instructor can all move forward using the technology. Nice job.
Cynthia, True. When the instructor does not know how to use the technology, it makes it difficult to explain to others how to use it or use it effectively. Thanks!
Mary, Nice list. We all have to feed comfortable with the technology and we need to make sure it meets our needs, the studnets' needs and the content needs. Nice job.
Augustine, We do need a variety of feedback methods so we can learn from everyone. Just like our students, we learn from our peers. Keep working to close that loop. Thanks for your input.
