Study Notes
Setting Learner Expectations
- Establishing clear expectations upfront reduces course management inefficiencies and learner frustration.
- Clear expectations help learners prioritize responsibilities and manage their workload.
Importance of Interaction Guidelines
- Detailed interaction guidelines should be posted in the Course Information/Syllabus materials.
- Guidelines define course interaction protocol and set expectations for frequency, response time, and quality of interactions.
Regular and Substantive Interaction (RSI)
- RSI is supported by describing expectations and strategies for regular and substantive instructor-student interactions in the syllabus.
- Expectations should be present in the course design, appropriate for the course length and structure, and easy to find.
Supporting RSI in Online Courses
- Communication plans should include regular, predictable, and substantive instructor-to-learner interaction.
- Clearly stated expectations for timely and regular feedback from the instructor support RSI.
- Directing learners to ask questions and interact with the instructor through online discussion forums demonstrates compliance with RSI.
Refreshing Your Course
- Schedule instructor-facilitated discussions on course topics to provide clarification, help, or feedback.
- Use online discussion forums to support RSI and encourage learners to engage with the course content.
