Without instructional design, a course can lack structure, have poor navigation, and have issues mistakes due to not being evaluated. It is important that the course content matches the learning objectives and encourages student participation.
I believe the concept of a clear, understandable flow is essential in this section of understanding your audience, ensuring information is delivered in an uncluttered way so the audience can grasp the material and remain engaged.
I think the evaluation part of designing an online class is most often overlooked. Yes, the students can take an end-of-course survey but how often are those suggestions/feedback put into place? I think it is valuable to create a team to review these surveys and develop action steps that could be put into place to improve the online student experience.
I believe video is still the most easily consumable media within a course, but video is passive and should be completed by more interactive solutions like H5P.

proper course structure and set up helps keeps students engaged
I discovered that there are media strategies for presenting online content in an e-learning enviroment, including tex, graphic, video, artwork, and photographs.
Keep everything organized, intentional, and easy for students to follow. Choosing media that actually supports the lesson, not distracts from it.
Performing online objectives allows the students to focus on a said task at their own speed, The downfall to doing that is that they do not get the input from other students.
We focused on student engagement and learning outcomes of the students.
The importance of a good analysis. How to effectively design an online course. Use of different media forms. Variety. Evaluating in different ways, outside of traditional quizzing, such as group activities and discussions. Not all reading text!
I learned in this module the importance of designing authentic assessments in the online environment that are directly aligned with clearly defined learning outcomes and course competencies. Well-designed assessments can promote active learning and help build a sense of connection between students and the instructor.
This module covered instructional system design definitions and introductory information about achieving student engagement by incorporating media strategies in the course design.
Using a variety of content in online learning helps keep students interested and considers students who may learn differently.
I will incorporate all into my courses: text, audio, animation, graphics, video, artwork and photographs
By integrating ISD with media strategies, I have learned to develop online content that is both clear and engaging.
I learned how media strategies and the Instructional Systems Design model help create clearer, more engaging online learning. I plan to apply this by choosing media that directly supports my objectives and by following a structured design process to ensure my content is purposeful, accessible, and effective for all learners.
We live in a modern era where online learning can be written with various types of content as appropriate for both the learner and the material being taught for the best learning experience. We can also use various ways to test the students to check understanding of the material.
One a the things I have learned is that online learning must have a clear and well-organized format. I have seen by myself how poorly structured online courses lose my attention completely, and the same is true for our students. The key is organization and clarity, without shortcuts.
I learned that online content must be consistent throughout the course. Maintaining clear, organized and consistent content in the online learning process for students is important to their success. It should also be diverse for all students to understand and be able to participate freely.
