I have learned from this course what I need to improve on with engaging students in an online course. I have identified what I am doing well already, but there are multiple methods that I can implement that will help with student engagement. I realize that I have to be more active in the weekly discussions. While I don't have to reply to every student in a discussion post, I do need to reply to a few students each week. I will focus on replying to students that no other student has replied to.
The other major area that needs improvement is the idea of Content Chunking in my courses. I believe students are overwhelmed by the weekly module and the workload. By breaking the module down into smaller sections, that content will feel more manageable to students.
