I thought the online lecture formats were interesting...Direct Delivery - Problem Solving - Graphic Based. Discussion and chats are critical for student collaboration and I will use them.
Love the idea of giving the students unlimited attempts for quizzes so that they really learn the material. Also contemplating the possibility of having different projects for grading because people learn in different ways.
The importance of the lesson is the online course content and its learning achievement through quizzes, test and exams. This is a medular aspect of the course outine content.
quizzes andself checks can be identifiers of weaknesses and strengths
Retomamos la respuesta base: es importante un profesor bien organizado. Eso incluye creación de contenidos, actividades y evaluaciones alineadas al curso.
I learned that the constant evaluation of everything that the student learns within the course, strengthens his rhythm and raises his morale.
This module discussed important considerations for various types of learning activities when teaching online. I appreciated the idea of allowing students to take quizzes multiple times until they achieve a perfect score so they can learn from their mistakes. It also helped me realize the importance of providing immediate feedback after exams to clarify the reasoning to students so they can incorporate correct thinking patterns. The links to the appendices with examples of online syllabi and lessons was a helpful resource.
Practice quizzes (pre-test quizzes) help student to know what area they should focus on.
Students need to spend some time in order to learn. After all, they are all by themselves and as you know, a lot of distraction are while studying from home.

I like your idea. Yes, they learn on their mistakes. And, hopefully, they retain the correct answers.
I try not to overload students with assignments and dues. In fact, I like to make it something pleasure for them to do. For example, I would watch a vide together and meanwhile, I will explain. Then, I would forward the same video and would ask students to watch it on theri own and write me a reporat of what they wathced. Then, I will compare therir writings to see if they understood the subject correctly or not.

I agree. Quizes are the best way to check the students' knowledge about a subject. It can be give to students for fun too.
On line learning teach students to be on their own mostly. They pay more attention in reading, to comprehent logically and think critically.
Develop additional instructional material and feedback based on productive discussions to simulate learning expereinces relevant to learning.
I have learned that is is so important to structure the assessments in order to increase concept attainment.
I have made the mistake of creating quizzes that needed to be manually graded and then got lost in the shuffle. I like that this course stresses the importance of timely responses and being aware of what can be graded immediately, so as to provide immediate feedback to the student.
I don't agree with the multiple attempts on quizzes (unless they are part of a non-graded assessment or part of a discussion board). At the end of the day, assessments are there to gauge the student performance as well as provide insight to the instructor to see if changes need to be made in order to provide the optimum experience for students.
One of the ideas I would like to incorporate in my class is the use of quizzes. The quiz could be used to clarify different components of teh lesson and they could be taken multipe times thus reinforcing the materials.
I wonder about the notion of using other lectures that are previously established by others. From my experience, there are multiple, valuable lectures on many subjects available online, and gathering them together instead of reinventing them can be really valuable.
Good tip to classify discussion questions as assignments.
