Sometimes I have a hard time with feedback. I dont want to drag a student down but I want to get the message to them that they need to improve on the assignment. How do you tell a student they need to improve the quality of work they are submitting without them feeling like they did nothing right? I give feedback for all submission, however, I get a little hestitant when it may sound negative...just because I do not want to discourage them.

Creating good student online

I think it is important to create a successful student online and consider the same services you would give a ground student. I find that the more I communicate with students and show that I am invested in what they want, I get a better response. I do this online by having good discussion and checking in with students who need support.

Should we let students make-up missed assignments and tests?

I tend to give students several chances to make up work. I do have a very standard deadline during midterm where every assignment from beginning to midterm needs to be turned in. I do this so I do not have students several weeks behind. I think a couple weeks to get assignments caught up is sufficient. I also struggle with grading late assignments because I feel it is unfair to those students who got their work done on time to make exceptions for students who did not.
