Using different techniques in active learning can keep students engaged. 

The instructor should be confident in the material. Critical thinking and active learning are both important skills for students. 

Observing how individual students learn will help in planning for each class individually. 

Staying mindful of students self talk and using kind words will help their motivation. 

Being an effective communicator is important for students to understand that they can come to you with questions. Assisting students through navigating online courses is helpful. Using nettique when using online platforms should be done consistantly. 

This module has been effective in describing alternative way students learn. 

Technology in the modern world is a fast process and must be maintained at an average process. The current trends of emojis can be misdirected and misunderstood. Keeping up with new processes that work for online learners is important. Self motivation and writing skills are as important as virtual collaborations.  

Students having the flexibility to complete work in a self directed approach can help with individuals personal life. 

This module has taught me that the learning process of giving students the answer to a question first and allowing them to back track and use the process similar to a jog saw puzzle to understand the why. This is a process that makes the students think critically. 

This module has brought to my attention that even with online learning there can be peer engagement and support. Weekly announcements can review the expectations and give active learners the chance to self direct if they want to.
