Chapter five describes de effective way of creating an online syllabus and the importance on adding first day speeches to help the student not feel disoriented. I like the idea of Pilar to add an introduction to the course via audio, it gives the student an idea of what is expected and if they are making the transition to an online course they will not feel lost. I also have to say what thing I found interesting was the color organization when organizing the front page, making red color for due dates etc. It will give the student easy access to where they need to be and do.
The book states that instead of organizing by weeks it should be by units. However, when teaching an 8-week course I will find it easier for students to find due dates and activities weekly. Here is my video. I do not have videos of my own but found this one online on the importance of syllabus.
