Reflections+Week+7


 * // Reflection Prompt: //** Reflect on how you perceive yourself as an online learner? Are you well-prepare to be an online leaner? Tell us about what you need to improve in order to be a successful online learner.

**Description **
As an adult learner, who happens to be a teacher I have a very different sense of myself, what I consider worth learning, and how I plan to best utilize my time. Throughout this course I believe that I have become a better online learner and instructor. As a e-learner I have been frustrated by the lack of cohesiveness between the Learning Management Systems utilized and the instructor’s course syllabus.

Since the learning is the responsibility of the learner, learners must read and process material to complete the units. Currently there is a disconnect between the instructors terminology and the LMS terminology. It is very frustrating and creates a lot of unnecessary questions.

**Impact:**
This inconsistency accounts for discontented learners who then need to take additional time to process if they are in a week, which module, what chapter. Due to the verbal contact of online learning, e-Educators will continually need to update, modify and develop their curriculum. Since the system is ready made and drag and drop, the instructors must take time to update their content to match what the format is.

Intent:
Terminology will need to be consistent, instead of using the word chapter it would be module. It makes it easier for the e-learner to follow.
