My final blog post for Dr. Rob Power's course, Teaching and Learning in an Online World (EDUC5199G) will be a response and reflection on the post-course (student satisfaction) peer-review feedback received, and how that feedback could be used to make improvements to my Online Teaching Module, and online teaching practice.
