Discussion Comment

Could it be similar to a news organization announcing

each story as "headline news"?

Interaction is important.  I want EVERYONE to be engaged and that is challenging.

In my experience teaching online I have encountered very few disruptive students.

Thought provoking

I think this module can help a teacher in self- examination. 

I think it is a good idea for a teacher to

regularly self-evaluate his/her approach

and attitude to both the subject matter

being taught and to the students being

taught.

Checklists can be useful. 

That there are specific practices that an instructor can

follow that will assist people with TBI/PTSD succeed

as students.

 

I learned that there are specific civil rights law that are for the

benefit of the disabled.
