Comment on Kevin Hamilton's post:
Absolutely—you make a great point. Combining both synchronous and asynchronous methods really allows instructors to offer the best of both worlds. I especially agree with your emphasis on easy access to content—that’s foundational. No matter how engaging or well-designed a course is, if students can’t easily find materials, deadlines, or instructions, they’re going to struggle.
I’ve found that having a clear structure (like consistent weekly modules with predictable layouts) helps students navigate asynchronous content more confidently. And in synchronous sessions, I try to use that time for connection, clarification, and discussion—things that really benefit from real-time interaction.
Have you found any specific strategies or tools that help you keep your course content organized and accessible for students?
