 The takeaways for this module include the need for the instructor to ‘project’ their presence since the interactions are different in the online environment. These include the need to lead and facilitate the discussions and ensure timely responses.  The weekly announcements and reminders are helpful ways to accomplish this in addition to regular participation in the various assignments and participation requirements.  I also think posting a good bio in the introduction board, or whatever the LMS calls the forum, that includes academic credential, professional credentials, as well as something on hobbies and other outside the classroom interests.  Finding common ground with the students at the beginning of the course is always helpful to establish a positive relationship.
