Understanding the student needs and embracing the CMS
It is important for students and the instructors to have a complete cycle of communication for a course to be successful. As I add online teaching to my repertoire, I have to ensure that communication is easy and open. I must understand if students have questions or need additional support. I should be able to provide that support or know who can.
This was definitely helpful. Understanding what goes into a face to face course, and an online course and the difference is very important. The interaction with the students must be more - blogs, email, video and/or phone chats; these are all important tools in the virtual world to assist the students.
I haven't learned anything new as this is a platform I have been using in my classes for some time.
I learned that we have to even more organised and structure our lessons in a logical way where students can access the contents and online activities easily. Teachers should be familiarised with te online learning environment and technology in order to maximise learning and teaching online.
Reviewing the course and expectations with students on day 1 is paramount. Also ensuring they can navigate it, this will change if you only have returning students, only new or a mix.
