I agree with Karen's suggestions too - and for stduent engagement - don't forget to go backand review the previous module (EL 102) where specifics were offered for different learning styles, which are Avoidant, Competitive, Dependent, Collaborative, Participant, Independent (Bergquist & Phillips, 1975). The first three styles can pull from active learning and engagement. And then behaviors need to be on the radar too because as in a traditional class - the online classroom will also have an array of sbehaviors tolook out for and address: noisy, quiet, disruptive, intimidators and procrastinators. 

Hope that helps and happy teaching everyone.

This was such a helpful comment because it reminds us that people will soemtimes miss the beauty of a lively teacher - and it sounds like you were engaged and making content come alive. 

I also was glad to be reminde dof this from this unit and my biggest takeaway is that good management involves the intro of a good sylabbus and all that - and also involves the instructor managing by offering "a wide variety of activities to offer" - and so we are not only allowed to bring in some fresh activiites= it is part of good management… >>>

I agree to0 - and when we become aware of the little things we can do to be more effective, we can prevent employees from becoking deflated - and we all work smarter :)

I agree - great info and so applicable 

agree  and all the more to have team work skills developed when the social media outlets might have students behind a device. 

Small groups that are safe and focus on material that is within competetnce can be a gift for skill building and course materail exposure - while also helping students make support systems with classmates. 

I liked the point about having stsudents work at corrections slowly. So in each assignment it is not needed to shjow them everythig that needs to be fixed or improved. Work at a few things each time - slow and steady the skills will improve.

I agree - offering variety is key. 

and I liked the reminder to have students take notes from the pre-recorded messages, which could then be discusse dor expounded on during class.

I also love how the flipped classroom can meet more needs for students because it might alow more intercation as the teacher is not the sage  on stage but the guide on the side. 

I agree and I think that this is a such a good idea - especially how students can review the recorded lectures as many times as they want. 

I can also understand why there might be resistance and confusion with this type of classroom setting - people might misunderstand the learnign envorionment.
