Week 5: Online Syllabus.
Transforming my f2f syllabus to an online syllabus has been challenging, but fortunately I have gotten great advise, such as emphasizing due dates in bold and red, repeatedly sending announcements, chatting as much as you can to let students know that you are there, having an easy way for students to communicate with you, being prompt on responding, creating a contract in Bb and making things explicit. These greats tips are reiterated in chapter 5 of our textbook.
One thing that I found questionable was creating a class with weekly tasks or giving students an overwhelming amount of information. I think breaking up activities and assignments is the best way to go. My class is divided into chapters. I found this option at this time more appealing. I am pretty sure I will make many changes to my class with time.
