The mock review makes use of a Structured Peer Review form,which helps triads organize their reviews (strengths, weaknesses and recommendations) andprovides the team with insights on what participants are taking into consideration as they conducttheir review.

This faculty development workshop alsoincluded the component of social aspect of learning with other faculty in a learning community,21where they learned new content and strategies, observed demonstrations of new strategies andthen integrated what they learned, and taught a brief excerpt of a lesson to their peers andreceived feedback from the community of learners.

Teaching an online class is acompletely different experience and I also had a much larger class size (more than 400). I had toexcel not only as a course coordinator, subject matter expert, and facilitator of learningexperiences, but also as a manager and mentor of undergraduate peer mentors (AKAundergraduate teaching assistants).

In addition, instructors can reduce the extent of social loafing by communicating thatteam participation is mandatory and specifying how each individual’s contribution will bemeasured25, 26, 28. Examples of how to measure individual performance include peer evaluation,specific task designation and measurement, and instructor observation. In addition, teammembers are more likely to be motivated to contribute when their contribution is unique2, 25, 26.This can be accomplished by assigning specific roles2 or emphasizing diversity of thought andexperience within each team25, 26.Defining roles during the formation phase can help the team clarify responsibilities and preventconflict29

Moreover, these videos were availablefor students who miss a class to go back and review what was covered in class and be up to speedfor the next lecture. (3) The concept was different from a traditional all-online course whichprovided videos of full lectures online and did not provide opportunities for students to interactwith the instructors and peers in class.

These instructions also include somereminders of things to consider that may help them communicate their scene, including tone,volume, body language, and use of relational space (all discussed previously in course content).Students are additionally encouraged to use readily available props as they deem appropriate.Each group is instructed to keep their scene a secret from other groups as they prepare.
