Learning Inventory
It's the final face-to-face session and it's time to look back at our original objectives. Now that we've learned some of the Essentials of eLearning, let's talk about, and document, how I know whether or not you've learned the objectives. What is the evidence of understanding we've demonstrated for these objectives?

Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
 * Describe the roles and responsibilities of teachers and learners in online and hybrid courses
 * Create and maintain a professional online presence and portfolio
 * Identify appropriate learning objectives for an online or hybrid course
 * Identify appropriate assessments for an online or hybrid course
 * Identify appropriate learning activities for an online or hybrid course
 * Select and navigate a course learning platform from an instructor’s perspective
 * Select appropriate technology for achieving desired learning outcomes
 * Demonstrate online facilitation skills using tools like discussions, chats, audio and video conferencing

Wish List
Our wish list of things we might do differently next time the course is taught. The first six are based on feedback collected before the face to face session. = =
 * 1) Clearer instructions on specific tools (Diigo, Jing, Tagging, Google Forms.)
 * 2) Clearer definition of final project, earlier in the course.
 * 3) More photos and videos, especially of students and instructor.
 * 4) Stronger instructions on what's expected when posting a link, so students know what to expect before they click.
 * 5) Clearer prerequisites. (Tech knowledge, and education knowledge.)
 * 6) Group projects (if there's a bigger class.)
