Expanding further on Owain's points, I think check-ins with students is key to ensure that they are actively engaged with the course material. The flexibility of online learning poses both  pros and cons for students. We have discussed in Day 3's module the benefits, but as teachers we know that flexibility for students without accountability does not always lead to a fruitful learning experience. For this reason, I believe online teachers have the added responsibility of check-ins to ensure students are thriving and achieving their academic goals. ~ J. De Jesus

as mentioned in my reply to Judith. How do we provide this kind of support in an online environment?

How are we addressing IEP's or accommodations with online platforms. Are we embedding specific tools within the course content to meet these expectations? How do we know who is behind the screen or submitting the work?

For some learners, it is really important to their success for the learner to feel known and cared for. For others, this is less important. Sometimes, the people who need it most don't initiate the relationship and so it can be difficult to tell. That said, as we are dealing human-to-human and with minors, the default should be warm demander and with out online structure there need to be opportunities built in for relationship building.

Check on students regularly so they don't fall behind. Be proactive in engaging with students who miss work. Make sure each student feels known and has made peer connections within the class.

Concentrate on the big ideas of the course, using a variety of synchronous and asynchronous activities.

Online courses should acknowledge students may not have access at a specific time and offer the resources for students to be successful.  There is a place for synchronous acts, but careful design does not mean everything minute needs to be micromanaged by the instructor/ teacher.

Materials should be organized to be easily accessible with the fewest clicks. The interface should have colours that are easy on the eyes and have some graphics (pictures, videos, etc) instead of just text.
