As a F2F teacher, moving to an online teaching, it is important to understand the difference between Asychronous and Sychronous online classess. Before even teaching on online class, one must consider which is going to fit their teaching style and the course best. Although Asychronous is most effective for online teaching, there are times to use sychronous teaching effectively if it is planning out and the expectations are set up in advance.
Synchronous learning requires everyone to be on the online classroom at the same time. Asynchronous is the ultimate anytime online learning experience.
Whether do synchronous or asynchronous teaching methods communication and an organized layoutis important.
Asynchronous teaching and learning is often used for larger classes, but there are advantages and disadvantages to it and synchronous teaching. It is important to consider the material being taught, the needs of the student and the teacher teaching style. It can help to award points to those students who answer other student questions completely and accurately.
This module is a good way to strategize by staying and staying in order. It's a good way to learn what is needed to be learned.
Teaching and Organizing a Virtual Learning Environment --> Synchronous versus Asynchronous Learning
When it comes to meeting your students needs, there are many important components that need to blend together to have student success; but most important is organization.
I learned the differences between synchronous and asynchronous class. Each method has its advantages, for example the synchronous provides a more personal approach between instructor and students. Meanwhile, asynchronous encourage students individual responsibilties.
La comunicacion y la organizacion son importantes para la ensenanza en linea.
Having different ways to communicate to students within the Learning Management System is important whether synchronous or asynchronous.
This module has taught us about a few different forms of communication with the students. synchronus and asynchronus are 2 common useful forms of communciation both with there own advantages and disadvantages. Your choice should depend on student capabilities, timeframes, course content, etc.
Synchronus and Asynchronous learning techniques must come with guidelines to ensure the best possible learning outcomes.
I leant the importance of contrasting when to use synchronous and asynchronous learning methods, developing delivery guidelines, facilitating instruction and that establishing a consistent pattern of devilvery is critical.
The knowledge was very useful and I will begin to use feedback to help me establish course guidelines, consistency and establish an effective pattern of delivery, communication and better outcomes.
I will also have a first day guideline outlining course expectations, objectives, content, assessments, submissions and due dates.
Instructors are more in demand when they have the knowledge and experience in BOTH Synchronous and Asynchronous teaching styles and organization skills. Overall, the students benefit from Instructors with these skill set.
We've been doing a blend of synchronous and asynchronous learning for a while and I'm glad that this module really reinforced how important consistancy is. It took us a while to really figure that out and get everyone on board with it.
The best new idea that came from this past midule was the idea of a FAQ page that students could help to answer, incentivizing them to do so. I like it!
I will be relying mostly on synchronous learning. There will be activities that the students will do as asynchronous learning, but the majority of how they will learn will be in Virtual Classroom.

That synchronous learning can be much harder to get set up because of access and all the other components involved. Asynchronous learning is much easier, once the student understands all the components.
It is important for instructors to establish a pattern of teaching. They need to be consistent.
It is important to have an open line of communication for online classes and understanding your students needs. Also being organized and meeting deadlines will help better the online experience.
Organization and communication are key in this topic!
Making sure that the Students and the Teacher are in "the same page"
Due dates for assignments is very important for both Synchronous and Asynchronous
