Module Six - Cybercoaching

Cybercoaching is a term that is new to me. It makes sense, but not real sure what the term really means. In reflecting on the meaning of 'coach' it makes sense that the online instructor would be focusing on developing one's strengths by giving prompts and cues on how to further enhance their work.

One thing I find as a challenge is how to always present information in a positive manner and be sure it is constructive. Perhaps a greater challenge is how I can modify my course or teaching strategies to make the activities 'fit' the course competencies and learning objectives. This also comes with the challenge of meeting the needs of a diverse group of learners with providing feedback that is meaningful and with how to effectively assist students with applying that feedback at the higher end of learning. More to come after reviewing again the information on cybercoaching/Jeanne
