I feel that the most important area learned in this module is on the topic of scaffolding. As we learned, students create good learning scaffolding by building on prior knowledge and experiences, by taking cues from instruction on where to focus learning energy, and by depending on a good course framework to guide them through the course. I also enjoyed learning about the importance of creating a sustainable online learning community that involves developing forums in which students feel comfortable sharing ideas, opinions, and facts with others, etc. I am excited to apply all of the helpful information from this module to improve my courses.
