Hello Matt!
I really enjoyed your reflections on pedagogy and how interactive learning has enhanced your learning experience. I completely agree with your emphasis on networked pedagogy and how it is so relevant. The use of platforms such as group chats and discussion forums can make a huge difference in engagement and collaboration within any class no matter the subject. Another area that stuck with me was your thoughts on constructivism. I also believe learning is much more meaningful when it involves active problem-solving rather than just memorization. Memorization is just about how well you can regurgitate information, where active problem-solving promotes actual understanding of the topic. Lastly, your point about effective online instructors really stood out to me. Clear communication and timely feedback is essential for an online course to be successful, which comes with a sense of connection to both your teacher and classmates that’s often missing in digital spaces. Overall you made some great points and I enjoyed reading your post. Thank you for sharing!
