1. Go to your personal blog, and consider again the five main goals/expectations you had at the beginning of the course (see activity two). Have they been met? What else has happened that you did not expect?
  2. In activity four, you developed a set of criteria for quality online tutoring (see the Wiki, Criteria for Quality Online Tutoring). Revisit this in the light of other work you have done during the course, and refine your list.
  3. Consider the attached table Capabilities of Online Facilitators. It is  from the course in Online Facilitation developed by the Centre for Educational Technology at the University of Cape Town. Where do you think you fit? Are you at the beginner, intermediate, or expert level in each of the categories? 
  4. Look again at the learning pathway. How do you think it fits the Five Stages (Gilly Salmon)? Has this course followed the five stages?
  5. Review all your personal blog entries. What do they say about what you have learned? Write a concluding personal blog entry in which you make a summative statement about: 
  • The five most important things you have learned from participating in the course.
  • Your assessment of yourself in terms of your knowledge, skills and attitudes required of an online tutor.
  • Next steps for yourself as an online tutor.
