I agree Brendan... was there any "one" area that was unclear to you within this course?
Lisa, This is really... a sad, sad story but very real. I had a student who I had in several classes. I spoke with this student on the phone but very briefly each time - until the last course before her graduation. Keep in mind that this student had been in school by this point - at least two years. She had to provide responses to her discussion boards each week and they were "flawless"... MLA was correct... research was terrific. Within this last course - I actually interviewed her for this company that she was to be working with… >>>
Hello Everyone,
I try to incorporate videos into my classrooms, catering to the visual learners or those who are shy and is afraid to contact their instructor for whatever reason. Below is a sample of a video explaining a specific assignment for one of my business classes.

Hi Butch,
I incorporate videos and video critiques into my classes. I use Snagit for the critiques, save them to my desktop and then upload to youtube. I also provide video for instruction or clarification of a topic. Here's a "sample" of a video I would post within my classroom:

My technique is to create videos and post them on youtube for my students. This is of course above and beyond the classroom. I may choose to provide video critiques for their Individual Projects so that they better understand what they need to work on and perhaps where they excel within any given program. I also provide extra links and references within my classes. I am asking you - what else can I contribute and… >>>

Hello Victor,
Do you use youtube? By creating video critiques for your students will get more positive comments than negative ones. You can post it on youtube (be sure to apply the "unlisted" privacy before posting the link anywhere) and then share the link directly with your student(s).
