Making sure I have enough knowledge on each student to make individualized assessments and assist accordingly
I learned how important it is to make strong relationships with your students and let them know your journey and experiences.
In this module I understand how important it is to make sure you introduce yourself to the students by giving them an autobiography about you. Telling them your experience , expertise and credentials help develop a good relationship and trust with your students.
Encourage online presence through a short summary of experience and expertise , this will encourage student engagement.
Comment on Brook Buckelew's post: It is important to project a strong online presence right from the start of your course, including your presenting your professional experience and qualifications. A warm welcome and later personal response/greeting for each student let's students know you are "there" and will go a long way establishing rapport and a foundation for the student/teacher relationship.
It is important to have an online presence to support students. Online learning requires additional technical support.
Projecting a strong onlinepresence starts with creating a positive profile that highlights your experience and qualifications. Equally important is fostering an inclusive and professional environment where students feel comfortable expressing themselves, sharing ideas, and communicating with their peers outside of formal assignments. This builds trust and encourages deeper engagement in the online classroom. Thank you
Social media has impacted our world on how easy it is to do hair on their platform however when we build a relationship with the
students then we are able to tell the student the theory behind those techniques.
I’ve learned, before the end of the first week of the course, it’s ok to send a personalized message to each student. Identify any aspect of the student's biographical sketch I believe is safe to discuss. Send my personal comments to them and remind them of my virtual office hours.
Being an effective educator, it is vital to know your students' background . They will be able to better relate to the instructor if they share their story with students.
In this module,I have learned that being present, supportive and relatable encourages students to open up to learning. I also realize that sharing professional experiences can help students connect theory to practice and feel more engaged in the learning process.
I learned that even with distance education you should build relationships and get to know your students, so that it will help them navigate better through the courses. The will be more open to reach out and engage more if they feel like they have that relationship with you without being in person.
I learned ways to project my presence and build relationships with my students online.
Creating and posting a short bio about your experience, expertise, and credentials helps to earn your students' respect, helps their confidence in your knowledge of the subject matter and helps them feel more comfortable. Also, maintaining a strong presence and authority online helps to maintain the online class in order.
In distance education, it is important to develop a rapport with each student individually. I plan to have the students submit a short bio, as suggested, which will help with my approach.
Develop and maintain a professional relationship with all students. Leaving a video announcement would help as they would know who the instructor is, asides to just a name
Forming relationships with each and every student can go a long way for their potential as students.
I learned that even when at a distance, it is essential to maintain a professional demeanor.
Check on students and provide valuable feedback to students
