Generational Roles

Ben, True. And, it's not just generations, it's people in general - students in general. Communicating effectively and learning from all students is the key. Thanks for your input.

Generational Roles

lindsey, We are all different and we all learn and think differently. Accepting that and helping others learn from each other and their experiences is an awesome thing to do in your classes. There are challenges, but they can be turned into opportunities for learning. Nice job.

Pattern of Communication

Richard, I like your use of the terms "common sense" and "tightening." Keep in mind, however, that common sense is not common! Ha! One of my favorite saying. ;-) You are right in that we need to think carefully about writing/speaking/body language, etc. Thanks for bringing that up in this forum.

Pattern of Communication

Madhuchanda, Very good. We need to ensure that all students understand the course expectations and they are all held to the same standard. That's the consistency piece. Nice job.

Pattern of Communication

Ben, Just as all students are different, so are all instructors in their communication skills and preferred methods of communication. Keeping it clear, no matter how you communicate is key. Thanks for the input.

Technology Communication Tools

Susan, All those "ability" words. ;-) Availability and portability are essential. Thanks for including privacy as we need to definitely consider that as well. Thank you.

Madhuchanda, Glad you mentioned formative and summative feedback. The tools we use will play a part in both. Thanks for your input.

Technology Communication Tools

Ben, Many times people forget to assess the tool. They just use it and move on. Your questions will help others see how to quickly, but effectively assess the communication tool they are using. Thanks for your input.
