@TLovatoVigil_RN This was a wonderful article to read. I often forgot that students not only miss the face to face classes but also the sports they play and the school clubs they were a part of. Online education does not allow that same type of community and interacgion to occur. #DistEd534

@kylr723 One of the strategies listed talked about designing with iteration in mind. I think this is a great way to create courses because students can build their knowledge up and continue to use what they learned previously. #DistEd534

[Cara Mabry @mabry_cara]

@Kaitlin54927151 This is a great idea! I'm sure there are students who would greatly appreciate this. When I was in nursing clinicals I would always wonder if there was something I could be doing better but I wouldnt know until the evaluations at the end. This could make a difference. #DistEd534

@SammyLHolmquist In my mind, the ideal situation would be to offer different classes. One that uses more of a gaming style and one that uses a more traditional style of teaching. Unfortunately I do not know how effectively that could be done. I would love to hear others ideas though. #DistEd534

More information about how gaming can be used in the online educational environment. This one discussed different techniques educators can use to make it effective. #DistEd534

@kylr723 Photos like this and mnemonics were a huge part of my studying in nursing school. I know some people that would make poems or songs to remember things too. It is such a great idea to help students find different ways to learn! #DistEd534

[Cara Mabry @mabry_cara]

@DaniellaTorchia This has some great information and makes it easy to understand. I can think of classes that have had all of these and some that were missing one or two. The difference between the classes was easily noticeable too. #DistEd534

Prezi has the option for video which could be a great tool for group work. It allows students to work together and edit presentations in real time. It can help students work better together in the online environment. #DistEd534

VoiceThread can be used in the online environment to help build a sense of community and let students feel that the teacher is "real" rather than just someone behind a computer screen. #DistEd534 https://t.co/SI8VEK6GUt

Kahoot! Has been brought up a lot in this course as a tool for education. This study looked at different articles to determine what benefits Kahoot could have in the classroom. It also looked at any disadvantages students and teachers found. #DistEd534 https://t.co/PO55Uuuawt

This study compared the use of virtual realty education against in person classes and zoom classes. This could be a great option for certain classes that require more hands on skill education when classes cannot be in person. #DistEd534

In the #COVID19 virtual world, #VR education may have benefits over zoom classes for educating physicians and surgeons according to a new Tulane study. #TulaneResearch

@kylr723 I have always liked playing Kahoot! And feel that it is abgreat tool to assess learning and promote interaction. It can also bring some fun to the class, maybe even creating some fun competition between classmates! #DistEd534

[Cara Mabry @mabry_cara]

@CaitlinsPostu These are some very interesting strategies. They make a lot of sense, especially the one about skimming. When rereading information I feel that I am able to apply that information in new ways compared to the first time reading it. #DistEd534

[Cara Mabry @mabry_cara]

@BellosLeann This is an excellent point. When online classes are taught using Zoom, educators could take breaks and encourage students to get up and walk around. They can also utilize more hands on projects if applicable to the class. #DistEd534

[Cara Mabry @mabry_cara]

@Kaitlin54927151 Rubrics have been an amazing tool to have in the online environment!They can provide students with specific instructions about what is expected from each assignment and how each area will affect their grades. #DistEd534

[Cara Mabry @mabry_cara]

This talks about ShadowHealth and how it can be used effectively for students to practice their assessments and obtain histories on Tina. #DistEd534
