Hi, It is very important to set a minimum number of posting in online dicussions. The quality of posting is very important as well. Oneliner posting should not be credited with any points. I think, a minimum of three postings per topic is a logical standard for any online discussions. The first posting should be the introduction, second one should be response to someone else's posting and extend thoughts, and the final posting should be a summarized thoughts on the topic.

I totally agree with you on this one Jayson. But I found that adult learners are much more dedicated and serious to their task. Anwar

Hello Class, It is always a challenge for an instructor to make a balance between the Young student group who tend to have fast learning skills and the Adult student group most of whom are tend to slower than the young group. But this can be also a good learning experince for any instructor as well. Anwar (Houston, Texas)

With more and more adult student attending the classes, we as instructors must be sensitive to these group of learners and accommodate their learning speed and skills. Anwar

As an instructor, I should make a clear understand of the course objectives and following instructions properly, how these objectives can be achieved successfully.

I think introduction is very important in first day of class. Getting to know each other, espcially knowing students would help instructor to set the tone and create the right learning environment. Anwar
