Course Content

The course content needs to be adjusted for the online environment simply because the students are learning in a different format. The classroom should be easy to navigate with the different areas easy to access. Online students become easily frustrated if they struggle with finding assignment directions, where to submit assignments and how to access important information.

Richard,

I like your thinking. You are right. This is the way students will for a lifetime and we need to help them develop those tools that will serve them through their life.

Asynchronous learning is such a wonderful median for education. Students are literally given the autononmy that is necessary for them to adapative their learning around their lifestyles. In traditional education formats so often the student is required to adjust their life around their education. With that being said our students are juggeling a great deal. The last thing they need is to enter a disorganized learning environment to further discourage them seeking their education. I think this is a great subjet to touch upon in this course.

Jean,

You are right, course design is so important; it can change the way students few course content. You have to be that guide to help students navigate their learning.
