Teaching Online Course

Joe, Definitely. Knowing where you are coming from, what you have to teach and how you're going to help the students achieve the course outcomes are key elements. I like the KISS approach: Keep It Simple Silly. ;-) Nagivation is a huge part in the students being able to learn the content. Thanks for your input.

Mark, Ah - identifying the obstacles is an important aspect of getting to know your audience. Remember these are guidelines to the generations and not all fall exactly into these categories, but having some general knoweledge helps you investigate them more. Thanks!

Pattern of Communication

Mark, Thanks for your input! The instructor and students both need to understand the expectation and how to communicate effectively with each other. The syllabus is typically the first step in effective communication.

Rubric Role

Yehia , Correct. I like the way you think. And, if the rubric is viewed as a contract clause and someone does not abide by the contract, they lose points. Makes sense. Thanks!
