This course is the beginning of a journey that will help me provide my students with an online learning experience. In the beginning of this course we learned about basic vocabulary and concepts associated with online learning. I found it to be interesting that all 50 states have some form of online learning. Within online learning there are several roles that support students in the process of online learning. These roles include instructional designer, instructor, and learning coach. Later in the course I learned about ways that online learning can be used to create an engaging learning environment and assessment strategies that could be used, and universal design for learning. I found it interesting that there so many ways for students to learn online. Differentiation is much more attainable due to the resources available. Students can even attend online field trips. Other components of this course also included the creation of a unit plan and a syllabus.
This was a great starting point for the preparation of my online learning experience. This course provided the support needed and the framework for creating a syllabus for online learning. There are many parts that need to be considered. A syllabus for online learning must be much more thorough. This course has also given me a much greater understanding for the resources available for creating an effective online learning experience. I also have a much greater understanding for the importance Universal Design and the importance of considering the needs of all students. There are so many tools available for accommodating these needs. I look forward to implementing all of these ideas in upcoming online learning experiences.
