I received re-learning  for reasoning to evaluate because it is an important part of quality assurance. Wasn't sure about "closing the loop" but i do agree with the concept that it takes 3 stakeholders: students who are the consumers; the institution and teaching & professional community. 

The assessment should be formative amd summative. Assessment is the vehicle to improved learning and teaching.

I learned how the students and instructor interact in an online environment such as S2S; S2I; I2S. also the key to good online communication is good detailed instructions witnin the syllabus. Also use methods of being realistic, allow anonymity, give credit, encourage collaboration and participate to help encourage effective communication in an online environment.

Sequencing is important for yyour course support and for reinforcing learning.  The use of instructional scaffolding  promotes learning as concepts and skills are being introduced to students.

I learned the importance of having  an effective simple record keeping system. You need to have an organized way to locate and retrieve your information for future use. It's important to have a standard way for students to communicate with you online.

The information on synchronus and asynchronous was enlightenin. The examples provided clarity as to when and when not to us.

I learned that I need to get to know the students and get them involved in their learning experienc. keep them updated on how they are doing.

Making sure the student can be successful is importan. Therefore, as the instructor I must familiarize myself with the system before posting any information to the students.. how I communicate with the students online us important .

I've learned that it's imperative to keep the team you're leading encouraged, though honesty, trust and giving contructive feedback to enhance them into leadership
