I liked learning about the instructor's role in attrition managment  - it's nice to know on one hand that we can have an affect and also a little scary at times.  We always need to be vigilant!

Personalizing feedback - both in asynchronis as well as synchronis classrooms is vital for that connection to happen.

For me, this lesson affirmed all of what I am doing in terms of relationship building.  The relational component is often times lost in online - I think the biggest compliment I have ever recevived from students is being todl they felt as though they were sitting in a ground classroom when they were in my classes because of my ability to connect - and all of the information shared affirms that is a vital part in a student's success.

I appreciated the reminders - having  been teaching online for almost 12 years - I had several "ah-ha" moments - which I love.  One of the key pieces that I want to remember is that every online instructor is different as are even some of the online classrooms.  It's important for us as instructors to fully understand the LMS system ourselves and that way be able to easily put our students at ease thorugh instruction and repetition.
