From this module, I've learned the critical importance of establishing clear guidelines and effective patterns of communication in online education. Understanding the various types of communication that need to be managed—such as content-related, process-related, and feedback—has underscored the need for structured approaches to ensure clarity and engagement among students and instructors alike.
I intend to apply these insights by developing a robust communication strategy in my teaching practice. This will involve creating clear guidelines or a communication code of conduct that sets expectations for interactions within the course. I also plan to implement regular opportunities for formative feedback from students to continuously improve the course delivery and content. By fostering a supportive and communicative environment, I aim to enhance learning outcomes and overall student satisfaction in my online courses.
