1. Break up work load

Students are much more likely to watch several short videos than one long video.

It is easier to organise and retain knowledge that is delivered in smaller chunks.

2. Student Interaction

Having students interact asynchronously can be a challenge. However there are technologies that allow students to interact. For examples, Forums, Voicethread, Workshop and Glossary.

3. Encourage active learning

Encourage active learning by creating activities that require student participation.

4. Monitor Student Activity

Monitoring student progress gives Teachers the opportunity to ensure student achievement, identify were students need help, and provide intervention when required.
