OMP in Fully Online Courses Weekly Check-ins (or by-weekly) Identify students in trouble quickly Makes students very visible Provide opportunities to connect with each other and with instructor Yields valuable information about the course
12
OMP in Online Web Design Course 6 weeks long OMPs every two weeks as check-ins Post in discussion forum A bit of whining, venting, frustration around 2 nd to 3 rd week. Allows me to see where they are. Can turn in back to them You are exactly where you should be Can identify slackers
