Get Your Students Hired
Trying to set students up for success.
-Help them develop good study habits
-Being aware of distractions
-7 learning principals was helpful
It is a good thing and bad thing to give students the opportunity to work independently
Online learning can be successful if students and instructors are working together. Students need to communicate their needs or questions and instructors needs to respond in a timely manner. Students need to understand their roadblocks, such as time management or schedule while instructors need to respect the time students have available.
Successful online learning techniques includes the seven principles stated in the module: Encourage contact with instructor and students, Develop reciprocity & cooperation, Encourage active learning, Give prompt feedback, Discuss the appropriate "time on task," Promote high expectations, and Encourage respect for all individuals.
Emphasize the importance of being prepared for learning. Allow adequate time to study and review. Prepare the students to organize and time management to succeed.
I appreciate the idea of finding ways to get students to think about what might be stopping them from achieving their goals as well as what they can do better to help them achieve those goals. End-of-unit surveys would be great places for this sort of introspection and intervention.
When establishing a goal, make sure that the goal is detailed, measurable and realistic and achievable through measurable steps. Teach Netiquette to your students!
Guidelines from the student’s perspective and the guidelines for a online instructor is what i took away from this module.
this is a great list of dos for teaching, stating expectations, recognizing differences, being proactive and timely, are all helpful theories for teaching, also establishing roles for both the teacher and students with the same principles sets the class up for success.
Remembering the 7 principles of learning is essential in online success. It helps maintain good communication and remind everyone to be respectful to one another.
Principles of learning and student goals are intertwined
Teachers and students together need to make the effort to have success. These principles lay out the foundation for the course. Also keeping in mind that there is a professionalism called Netiquette "Respect", so each student understands common courtesy and behavior in the online environment. Another very important skill is time management and avoiding the pitfalls that students have over time.
I hadn't used the 7 Principles for Learning since grad school -- I most appreciated your depiction of this from both the instructor's and the student's perspective.
Explain the use of time in context with course content and this will help students with time management.
The Seven Principles of Learning is a useful framework for understanding how best to lead and coach students for success in the online learning environment. Emphasizing the importance of time allocation and management is also key to students' ability to learn and accomplish coursework in a timely manner.
Time management is an important skill when dealing with the online learning space. It is helpful for an instructor to provide "tips and tricks" for keeping up with the work load and successfully navigating the assignment schedule.
I like the idea of providing students with roles in the online environment such as a leader, facilitator, recorder, and reporter. I believe to some degree it could also be helpful in a synchronous environment with a little creativity.
Guide the learners that are new to on line learning to secure retention and success. Gauge their skills so as not to have them overestimate their technology skills and procrastinate turning in the assignment. Only to find out the work was not completed because it was too much work and enough time was planned to complete the assignment correctly.
