Content Rationale:
The format and contact information above illustrates the dedication to uphold communication between student and instructor. I have placed time parameters/expectations as to when I will check communication strands from students. Phone and email availability aligns with an average daily workday timeline, however, for phone contact I have chosen a prerequisite private email to determine a time that would be conducive to both parties. In order to provide acceptable availability free from distraction as well as an option in the event of an emergency.
I have communicated all email will be checked at the beginning and ending of each work day. This will allow me to review emails prior to beginning my workday as well as at the end of the workday. As time permits, checking email throughout the day may occur butt that would be an additional organization component that I do not feel needs to be shared with students as it is not an expectation I would like to convey. I have offered contact via phone, however, a prerequisite contact via email has been included to deter students from calling me throughout the day and having a conversation at a time or place that I cannot provide my full attention.
Reflection:
I have included my photograph as I believe it is important to establish a human connection with students. I am confident that I have included the pertinent information necessary to achieve the goal of providing necessary information for contacting a course facilitator. As I begin teaching within an online environment, I will update the information above to align with current information.
