Evaluate 2 - Data Driven Instruction & Analysis
Next: Include the following in your blog
Reflect: Review the artifacts above on student enrollments and student progress in the course.

Answer: How might the teacher adjust the course in the future based on the previous activity of these students? What uses does data have for online instruction? What advantages do teachers who utilize data have over those that do not?
For online classes, data is an integral part of the success of the course. Because teachers do not meet "face-to-face" with students to read facial clues or manually check for understanding, teachers must rely on data. An advantage to utilizing data is the opportunity to reteach certain concepts as well as provide additional resources. Those teachers who do not use data are not able to help students meet expectations. The mistakes in the course will be repeated from course to course if teachers do not analyze the data. Based on the previous activity of the students, a teacher can revise an entire assessment or specific questions from the assessment. This is essential. Data driven instruction is in integral part of online courses. Teachers must be willing to adjust the content or assessments to ensure student success. By looking at when students access content, teachers can determine if students are making steady progress or cramming at the last minute. Additionally, using a communication journal is one way that teachers can evaluate student success. By contacting all stakeholders teachers can provide suggestions and feedback.
