Some of these things I do, but I was glad that it was mentioned in here- create PPT slides (I use it for the daily agendas), podcasts, youtube videos, and a FAQ section.
I love the idea of establishing "office hours" as mentioned in this reading. Telling students when I will/will not be answering emails and sticking to that time frame will help to keep a balance of work/home life. The key is to say what you mean, and mean what you say, then stick to it.
Vital to practice good time management. Designate specific times for responding to emails, checking progress, etc.
Prioritizing teaching is very important for the success of online teaching.
Time managmement for the instructor is very important
Management of time is important for the instructor. When we manage our time correctly we set an example to our students.
Using online delivery models will help you develop a good course with maximum learning impact and minimum workload expectations. A good delivery model will take the learner into consideration in good instructional design and ensure that you have the elements of a good course
A lack of social presence cna lead to high level of frustation, lo level of affecting learning and indeifference towards instructors . As an online instructor and administrator my social presence allows for more effective adn smooth learning experince for the students.
Maintaining a schedule and separating work and personal time is essential. Clear communication to the students with your online times is important to keeping this scheduling process effective.
Set a goal, plan it out, set boundaries and use self discipline.
Prioritizing tasks, sticking to those tasks and developing a schedule are important compontents of the organizational process for an online manager.
Keep work life and personal life balanced. You have to set boundaries and not allow work to interfer with your personal time. Intentional planning will prevent this from happening.
In an ideal e-learning world I would have my source materials planned/chosen ahead of time, unlike how my life has been tossed into remote learning due to COVID 19.
The more you plan the less overload you will experience...professionally and personally.
in order to eliminate overload, one can still adhere to the work required if they include a discussion board for "after hours" support that could come AFTER office hours.
Time management skills to avoid work overload will create a more successful teaching environment and a more successful outcome for the students.
I thought the point that the teacher is the role model for the students as an example to time management and communication strategies is critical. Young students will only participate as much as the teacher requests their presence.
It is so beneficial to put in the time before the students show to the course. The more procedures and systems you have in place, the smoother work time will go for all.
I learned that using effective management helps with overload. I plan to use the template.
