Evaluations and timely feedback are important parts of the online learning process.
Feedback fuels the teacher/learning process.
What I have learned is that revisions is important but also feedback is important to make sure you are hitting important points.
It is important to revise courses that you are teaching. This will ensure they are current and best for student learning.
I learned that taking an online course is a great way to understand your student's perspective when being an online instructore. It is essential that the syllabus has hyperlinks and materials linked in one location for easy access. The more we can provide assistance and materials and make it easy to find, the better we can assist students in an online course.
Course revisions are important they make the course materials clear and consistent
I learned that taking an online course as a student can be a helpful form of professional development, to better understand the student experience in an online course.
ive learned to always provide feedback however , teaching is number one
It is important to be selective when providing resources to students. If it is not certain that the resource is needed for the required learning outcome, do not provide it to the student "just in case".
Great idea for the syllabus to have hyperlinks to outside resources.
Saving links and digital materials saves time for other supports for class.
The repository is a lifesaver. However, you still need to have resources stored and organized.
Professional development is not a poor use of time; it is a workload management strategy. When I learn my weaknesses in training, I learn what to resolve in order to do my work better.
Hello,
Should have scheduled revisions at the end of each term to ensure the class is correct and any areas of improvement. Getting feedback from the students on what went well and where changes could be made.
Course development is not a one time event. Getting feedback from a variety of audiences helps save time and frustration as the course revision process takes place. Keeping copies of the course content will help when updating course material and making revisions to the course.
Provide assessments early and often.
In this module, I gained insight on formative and summative evaluations and how I can implement it to the evaluations to help make the revisions accordingly.
I also learnt about the ADDIE Model which includes Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation.
I learned about the different types of course revisions and the typical time frame associated with each.
I am excited to learn more about this subject.
