Hi friends,
Have you heard of the 1% rule?
It’s a rule of thumb that on any given platform on the internet, only about 1% of users add content, while the other 99% just lurk.
Only 1%!!!
You know what that means? There’s a ton of room to add your voice to the mix.
Even if platforms like Twitter, LinkedIn & YouTube seem to be so crowded already.
Even if it seems like nobody is paying attention. (You never know who’s watching.)
And even if you think you have nothing interesting to say. (You know something that others don’t.)
Become one of the 1%! It’s fun…I promise!
Now here’s what I want to share with you this week:

How to get useful feedback from your students
Had a call today with fellow course creator Payam Salehi, and he sent me this brilliant article of his afterward. He outlines 7 ways to collect feedback from your student that will help you improve your course. I hadn’t thought of 4 he mentioned.
📈 Productivity
What does an online course manager do?
Running a course involves managing a ton of moving pieces. Working with a course manager is one of the best things you can do to lighten your workload. But what does a course manager actually do? A mini job description based on my experience as the course manager for MVV.
