Someone said, "Communication is key," I agree, there needs to be an established method of communication so that the student feels they have access to their instructor for all questions and guidance. I find it critical to hand out the syllabus, objectives, and agendas in the first meeting or in the on-line syllabus. Having both VC and on-line gives students access to both components. But once the students feel comfortable with their method they settle into that style and then the flexibility of the online experience will be beneficial.
