Authoring Online Course

Tina, Thank you for your input and concise list. You are right on target. Course outcomes, prior knowledge/background (which you can obtain more information from students in one of the first class meetings), and collaboration are important. It's important for students to understand the course outcomes and how projects/assignments relate to the outcomes. Nice job.

Generational Roles

Lisa, I am glad you enjoyed the module. It's important and fun to investigate these things and think critically about your student population. Some of the generational lines may overlap and some people don't quite fit into their generation, but general guidelines are good. The generations can learn from each other and enhance collaborative projects. Nice job.

Teaching Online Course

Jane, Knowing your course content is essential. Many subjects make it difficult to keep up with changes in the content and it's important, as you said, to continue to review and stay current in your field as well. Course checking and revision is a constant process along with providing feedback and communicating with students. Nice job.

Variations of Evaluations

Emmanuel, Right on! Getting feedback from students is very helpful. It's also good to get feedback from peers. They both bring different feedback about the course and help you improve the course. Nice job.

Developing Meaningful Feedback

Emmanuel, Excellent information. It is obvious that you are doing a great job with feedback to students. The key words you use are comprehensive, constructive, timely and completed to close the loop. I would add positive and meaningful, but if you do the three you listed, I belive the feedback would be positive and meaningful. Thanks again.
