Recommended: An essay on online learning

o What features do you most appreciate? First I like the book that has been used through the course, content simplicity and easy to understand about the philosophy of online learning, pedagogical models, instructional strategies, authoring tools and the resource it backs up with the website option (www.prenhall.com.dabbagh). I appreciate the visibility of home page, very user friendly all the instructions are on the left side and easy to locate the instructions about the assignment. The way groups splits up weekly for discussions will also help the participants to get involve with everyone. I like the way the instructor provide feedback on the assignments is very supportive and eye opening for me. In every weekly discussion the real examples shown by the instructor to promote articulation and reflection among learners is very useful like the discussion of pioneer woman, Lynda .com, Classroom 2.0. o What do you find most frustrating? I think there is a need to have at least two one on one meeting between learner & instructor. One at the initial point where the course start, so...

    She employs energetic guest presenters, to keep her adult learners awake and interested. Small group activities keep the class going and you can find help in your groups. Personally, small group activities are a great idea, because it’s a time to get social and bounce ideas off of everyone, causing a better class environment, and a tight knit social experience. She also has lectures that last no longer than 15 minutes per topic. That is a great way to handle lectures.

This class made me pay attention to the problems that people with disabilities are facing in society. It helps me realize that many people who are struggling do not show up, which I can relate to. It made me want to be more patient with people, even if I might get mad because of a game or them doing certain tasks.

The class discussions contributed to helping me learn because it provided me with extra information and different viewpoints of how others interpreted the material. Also, we ended up going to the library and taking a tour. This experience added to my learning in this course because it taught me how to find the proper materials in the library and how to accurately benefit from the sources available in the library.

    In 1999, Mark Bonner of PricewaterhouseCoopers accurately predicted, “Online learning will rapidly become one of the most cost-effective ways to educate the world’s expanding workforce.” Fifteen years later, his statement is truer than ever, as the price of going to a four-year university skyrockets, and technology required to get the same degree online becomes more available.

  • Reflection On Learning Experience

    1035 Words  | 3 Pages

    I have enjoyed many things about this class. One of the things that I have enjoyed was finding out about my learning patterns. I enjoyed finding out about my learning patterns because it has helped me so much in my life. I can have a conversation with someone and will try and figure out how they learn. I also enjoyed how everything was explained about what our instructor was expecting from us. I enjoyed this because it saves a lot of questions I may have needed to ask my instructor. Interacting with my peers is something that I enjoy as well. When I interact with my peers I feel like I am really in a classroom. Things that I would like to change about this class would be the responses from emails; I wish the responses would be quicker when there are questions. I feel that my expectations of online learning were met plus more. I feel this way because I am actually learning things and I am not just getting a grade because I turned information in. I thought online learning wasn’t serious; I was scared I wouldn’t get the correct knowledge as I would on

    There was a significant amount of knowledge given in this course, involving concepts that in our teaching career will be extremely important. From this course I have gained a significant amount of learning experiences. I had the pleasure learning about how the educational system has come to be what it is today and who were the important people in the creation of the public education, like Horace Mann. Watching the videos and reading the chapters required has opened my eyes more of how a teacher should respond to different situations involving a student, For example when we read the chapter on the laws that revolve around the educators and the students. I had absolutely no clue that students had rights while in school property. Another learning

    There are some students who find it easier to work in internet classrooms and some others that find it easier to stay with traditional classrooms. I think someone may choose internet classrooms if they have difficulty interacting with teachers and other students. Some people do not like being in the classroom because they do not feel at ease around certain people especially those who treat others with disrespect. It is hard for a student to concentrate and learn a lesson when they have that kind of pressure.
