Theability to have robust communication and interaction between students and educators is essentialto getting buy-in from both parties. This section explores the current technologies in use fortoday’s online courses, current and emerging grading technologies, and considers the keyemerging technologies required to enable online learning to continue to improve its deliverymethods and expand in scope. The current online learning environment relies heavily on technology to enable thesharing of information and to provide feedback to students.

Encouragement badges were awarded for accessing the flashcards or attending office hours; repeating these behaviors earned higher levels of the badges.Three times over the semester students are required to write something: an ethics response onday 01, written instructions for using the right-hand-rule for three-dimensional moments on day15, and a project report on day 40. Some students believe that becoming an engineer means theynever have to write anything again; while assigning writing assignments can disabuse them ofthis notion, we hoped that assigning badges would highlight some of the places where engineersuse writing skills.

In the course, students iteratively reflect on andcommunicate their past experiences and development of competencies through writing stories;drafting values and guiding principles; connecting with mentors; and applying learning to early-career decision-making. At the end of the course, students were able to: 1. Describe their growth in and mastery of competencies in the context of their undergraduate experiences. 2.

A second example is discussion boards. These are assessed collaborative activities whereeach student posts an answer to a specific question and is required to respond to other students’answers. The class discussion boards can flourish without the instructor’s guiding dialogue as thestudents engage in asynchronous threads [20], [21].
