FridayLive! When Bad Things Happen in Good Online Courses: Part 2 April 19

Presenters; Steve Gilbert and more

Back by popular demand, Clothing the emperor continues: examples of bad things happening in online courses - even good online courses. "Clothing the Emperor - not merely pointing out that the emperor is naked." Consider options, resources and limitations available (to those offering the course,  to YOU?)

We will talk together about how to resolve some common examples in depth. The goal is to help beginning teachers of online courses

1. Reduce the number and pain of avoidable problems

2.  Avoid disasters resulting from unavoidable problems

3.  Survive disasters

Discussion scenarios will come from these example categories:

• Everything’s the same
• Cookie Cutter Courses
• Kitchen Sink Syndrome
• Student Behavior: terrorist, troll, thoughtful commentator, whiner, passive
• Mad Scientist (well intended and not well intended)
• Do as I Say Not as I Do
• What Were They Thinking? Egregious errors
