Course organization is one of the most important parts of teaching online. Without the instructor present to explain what to do, where to go, it is imperative that an online course be highly organized and easy to navigate.
The goal is to establish a pattern of learning for students where they know what to expect and where to go each time they login to the course. If students are spending their time and effort on trying to find things, they will get frustrated, disengage, and complain. Lack of organization is one of the major reasons students cite for dissatisfaction with online learning.
Here is how you can establish that pattern of learning for your students.
Break your course up into chunks by topic, module, unit etc. that have the same structure or flow to them.
