MARIE,
How lucky are you to have that support? You make a great point Marie, you need to find someone you can talk to regarding teaching online. It may be a discussion board, blog, or a on ground group but it does help. Just answering these questions in this forum helps me teaching online. Also, ask students what made them successful in the course at the end of the course then use that to help your students and to help you improve your course.
