Regarding the 2nd module on the sections of "Using Effective Communication," and the section "Scaffolding Student Learning" -- one of the areas I've had students continue to share appreciation for is giving meaningful feedback in grading comments for each assignment. I start the grading comments with a positive reflection to each student on her/his assignment for the weekly forum discussion and weekly paper, then follow up with suggestions for improvement. This helps promote the S2I and I2S communication and invites students to email me with problems or concerns and ways I can be of more help in their learning. It also promotes the scaffolding of their individual learning. It's been a method that has proven to reinforce the students' learning confidence levels; it's very common (about 90% of the time or better) that I can see a student's performance levels grow with each week of class work as I continue with meaningful grading comment support.
