Get Your Students Hired
Consistency, Organization, Scafffolding, and Chunking are crucial to the success of students who are completing inline courses and modules. It is also important to test out any materials being used. Another important factor is ensuring the content being presented is meaningful and purposeful.

This module has made me think more about the importance of creating learning objects. I teach high school students business and have considerable content overlap between classes. By focusing on creating learning objects that are usable across classes, I can provide richer learning opportunities while maximizing my time and efforts.
Consistency is key. I have found that the more consistent that I was, the better for my students. They also had a sort of normalcy that they liked.
My take away is consistency is key in building your online course. I have experienced a course where the objectives were not aligned with the lesson and expectations were not fully established- it had too many gray areas with assignment directions.
I have learned the importance of describing (and explaining) the usefulness of the learning-objects database; and, how it immediately provides students access to resources.
In this module I have learned so far how to create, test the created module and maintain the learning within the modules. I think that this is the most important part to start the class out and keep the momentum of the class. I will use this information to make my courses and testing it and organizing the lessons and content.
Something I took away is the importance of continuity from module to module. Not only do they need to look the same but they need to continue to scaffold from one to the next to the next.
When using online modules, I've learned that being consistent with the information provided seems to help students. Changing the modules to make it different each time can confuse and discourage students.
I understand while using a student centered approach, students will depend on sequencing of the content modules to reinforce and broaden their own learning.
When designing an online course module, one of the most important aspects of the course is the CONSISTENCY of the format, layout, structure, and time needed to complete modules.
Consistency is key. In order to diminish student confusion, and stream-line my own curriculum, modules should be created with similar styles and clear learning goals displayed. This will help with additional content creation as well.
In this unit I learned that keeping the interface of modules consistent will help users to feel more comfortable as they navigate your course. It is also important to "test" your modules for reliability.
I leaned that module consistency is important becuse it helps ensure that all the modules within a course have a similar layout as well as similar visual , instruction and assesment characteristics. Module consistency is important too because students rely on module layout consistency to create "non verbal cues regarding their expectations in completing the course.
Consistency on my part is very important so that students will understand what I want them to do.
