Work and Life Balance

Jennifer , If the school requirement is to post on the DB most days of the week - just post Monday, Wednesday and Thursday or something like that. If the students see you posting all the time, they will think less and let you do the thinking! ;-) Turn the tables! Take care and keep learning. It's what we all do. Take care.

Mistakes in Making Rubrics

Diana, We should be assessing our rubrics each time we use them to make sure they are assessing what we need them to assess. We should be altering our teaching and rubrics to become better each semester. Thanks for your input.

Advantages of Rubrics

Tina, Right - it's the criteria that are the key. Rubrics take assessement to a higher level and hopefully take the students' learning to a higher level as well. Thanks!

Advantages of Rubrics

DIANA , Yes, then the students understand the expectations. When they do that, they rise to a higher level and succeed and have less questions about why they got the grade that they earned. Thanks!

Advantages of Rubrics

DIANA , Right on! The key is that rubrics help everyone - students and instructors. Take time to create good rubrics to help you all.

Variations of Evaluations

Lisa, Student evaluations give us much information pertaining to the way the course was run, learning that occurred, etc. This is important feedback to help us improve as teachers.

Authoring Online Course

Lisa, Very good. We do need to analyze our audience (our students) and help them succeed. The better we know our audience, the better we can understand how to provide course content to all students. Thanks!
