Different feedback loops will provide valuable insight for course revision and updates.
I gained from the "closing the loop" idea presented. If I do not see the link between "planning and assessment of student learning outcomes," I will not be able to effectively drive academic learning.
I learned that this Course Revision and Improvement allows continous improvement
These types of course evaluation are already in place. We have other avenues of evaluation also.
I learned you must use many different tools for course revision that reflect what various stakeholders need.
Evaluating your students helps them know where they are at. Need to do this more.
I learned that gathering input from various stakeholders is important to improve a course effectively. The feedback is essential, and you are not just relying on one form of course evaluation. In this way, you can make continuous changes that will allow improvements in the course and close the loop.
We learned in this excellent module that we need to use multiple evaluations and multiple inputs in order to constantly improve our online courses. I plan to use more evaluation methods in my online courses to help with the key areas to improve student learning experiences, curriculum, professional development, and quality assurance, etc.
"Closing the loop" is an effective tool to determine if the course has effective learning. I never saw this necessary until I read new data. Having your course and instructor evaluated for needed improvements has a positive effect on the Institute, Instructor and the learning process for the students.
I have made notes on the course syllabus as we moved through the course of things to change. I need to do a better job of reaching out to students individually to ask what is and what is not working for them.
There needs to be more than one way to evaluate a student.
I’d never thought of having a peer look over my lessons to evaluate them.
I've learned that I need to have all the stakeholders provide evaluation of my courses including content experts, online teaching experts, students, peers.
Include the students by offering regular evaluations that solicit their opinions and wishes for improvement. That way they are more inclined to be involved because their voice is heard.
I like the idea of having a different instructor review the course. The outside perspective would be beneficial.
Having multiple evaluations is more effective and helpful for course development.
It is overall beneficial for the instructor and course to have multiple types of evaluations in order to get a wide range of data.
It is always good to have multiple ways to evaluate the effectiveness of your online courses!
All the evaluation mechanisms I can use to evaluate the course and make course improvements.
I learned about the various evaluation methods and when it is appropriate to use each one.
