Comment on Allyssa Thomas-Cooper's post: I agree with this post. The students of TODAY are not the same as the students of yesterday. They digest information in a different fashion and US as educators must learn to adapt to the way they learn best. More people are becoming visual learners and are looking to acquire the information faster. We must not allow ourselves to become dinosaurs in a business such as this.
Comment on Kimberly Rayford's post: Reviewing the content is going to be crucial in the way we digest this information. There are aspects that I am sure we are all aware of simply due to our life experiences but when ideas are quantified, there are intricacies to how we actually connect with one another as humans and peers.
Communication is an essential component that is heavily utilized in the workforce and necessitated due to the value of the information that is being conveyed via it's use. Therefore one must be cognizant in it's use by clearly identifying the purpose, the message being conveyed, the tonality and the perceived perception. This requires thought that most times need to be void of emotion.
Course management system is the first step to successes.
It is imporant to familarize yourself with the different techniques and strategies, each instructor has a different teachching method.
What I have learned already is three use of structural integrity. We could develop comprehensive Content half-hour courses into Marshalls in logical lessons. This allows us the opportunity to be able to provide both an overview as well as detailed information about specific topics. Through the utilization of the quality of media utilized in the program, as well as the level of interaction between the professor and the student, can help develop our intellectual exchange.
Through the center of learning, active listening helped develop quality courses that will be complete and concise. Forming material with heightened elaboration levels helps improve the online course's overall quality.
The development of CMS allows tutorial content, assignments, and glossaries. His online structure enables the professor to post announcements and invents on the calendar. It helps synchronize the entire classroom by allowing the professor to provide information and the students to reply to set data.
Through the learning environment, I realize a sense of comfort for the students and gives them the flexibility needed within the lifestyle of today’s generations. But still, having constructed deadlines gives the feeling and structure of the classroom. I’ll still have comfort governed directly by policies like that for plagiarism.
With any IT structured system, technical support is necessary to ensure the streamlined process of the online program.
I want to find gold within the course. What we’re trying to teach should be established early on; therefore, it will allow us to adopt the correct strategy to provide the best quality to the student.
A strategy should be selected based on what the student is expected to learn within the timeframe, starting with day one. Those quizzes have been a profound way of being able to judge. One’s quality is going through a course. Over many years, it has been identified that websites have started to pop up to have posted the answers to these quizzes. In the future, providing insight-based assignments over examinations will be more realistic.
Online learning or online teaching can both be a challenge. The online learner needs to feel comfortable with the CMS/LMS, and so does the instructor. Both need to understand how to work within CMS/LMS and both need technical support.
Even though instructors use different delivery methods for teaching it is important to reach the same goals.
good course, really effective in teaching how to commu
A streamlined and intuitive structure is my goal while developing our online course. I will take student feedback to improve upon the process as it evolves.
I am increasing my online instructor understanding of the Course Management System and course delivery techniques.
In an e-learning environment, instructors may vary in the way they teach but best practices should be followed when employing techniques and strategies within an online/e-learning environment. This is to ensure all instructors have the same set of guidelines in which to apply the techniques each has learned.
I need to have an understanding of what each student needs and make sure all class information is available for them when needed
I have been provided the recommended ways to teaching successfully online, how to prepare for teaching, and how to best help students through education.
Interesting to see the different tasks structures and support
There is no replacement for preparation. Even experienced teachers should review the LMS before the start of a new course. In fact, instructors would benefit from taking the student orientation course to get the student perspective. Empathy is one key to successful communication, which is key to learning.
Very good information to learn about online teaching,
I've learned that quality online courses require structural integrity, intellectual interaction, navigational simplicity, and active learner-centered learning.
I learned about the importance of understanding the functionality of the CMS and how that impacts the student experience.
I learned how important it is to ensure students have learning and technical support so they can be successful in the course.
