I agree when it said that " There are a variety of ways to develop participation and engagement; however, the key is to help students understand why the content is important to learn and that you care about their achievement of the learning outcomes. To justify the importance of the content, try to connect it to their lives and help them establish why it will be important for them. To show them you care about their learning, communicate effectively and compassionately."

Learned " That whether learning face-to-face or in an online environment, students have different needs. Some students may have minor cognition problems, developmental issues, or serious learning disabilities. It is very important to recognize those with learning disorders so that the instructor can more effectively deliver content and design learning activities to help all students achieve the learning outcomes."

I found it interesting that to have a well-designed course that meets its outcomes/objectives Student evaluations are an essential source of information,

That "Norm-referenced assessments should be used to compare a student's skills to skills of others within a particular group. On the other hand, "Norm-referenced assessments are most appropriate when the instructor wants to make comparisons across a large numbers of students or needs to make a decision regarding student placement and advancement."

 Learned that "Summative assessment is assessment that is conducted at a particular point in time. It occurs at the conclusion of a lesson, project, unit, or course to determine what students know and what they do not know." and that "The outcome of summative assessments is a judgment of student competency at the end of the instructional phase with a grade earned."

I learned that "It is important that the technology assessment tool enhance, not hinder, the assessment process." And that "Data gathered from students is the best way to ensure the quality of assessment."

I planned to use this suggestion it said ("When considering how to best get faculty involved in the orientation process, they should:of them introduce themselves and provide a brief synopsis of their background This is the ideal situation, where students enrolling in a particular major can interact and ask questions of the faculty in that discipline.This allows for relationships and expectations to be formed early in the process')

I like this suggestion about orientation it say, "Planning your orientation content should reinforce the student's decision to attend your institution. As you consider the topics, you should reinforce the various support systems your institution has in place and the availability of your faculty and staff to assist them. Be sure to present in various ways your institution's unique ability to prepare them for a successful career."

I found this to be heplful it says "Talk personally with some students who have withdrawn to determine what their experiences were and then build in ways to increase the value at your college" to leave or to stay
