LS4ODFL reminder – Course starts on 1 November 2022.
Dear [First Name]
My name is
Deepak Prasad and I will be facilitating this course, meaning that I will be answering your questions, giving you feedback on your work, creating an environment and community that will help you learn, and acting as a guide on the side as you work your way through the course.
I hope you will enjoy the learning journey with me and never hesitate to reach out to me if there is anything I can do to help you with it!
The best way to contact me is always email – deepak.v.prasad@gmail.com.
I typically respond to emails promptly. If you do not hear from me after 24 hours, please follow up as I get a lot of emails and might have missed yours, or a communication glitch may have occurred; a friendly reminder is most welcome.
Just a couple of quick notes about how I will engage with you over the next 4 weeks:
- I will send you comments for learning challenges and respond to your emails and queries on learning challenge forums on Moodle. I will be reading your module discussion forum posts. However, I want to preserve the module discussion as free space for you to engage with other course participants, so I will not weigh in but rather watch from the side and occasionally contribute to discussions when required. I will also interact with you through the Mastodon course site.
- I will send you more emails during the course: reminders, weekly instructions, a course feedback survey, as well as an invitation to join a vibrant community of practice for teachers in the Pacific region.
If you don't already know me from
WCPT, here is a little bit more about me:

We will send the instructions for the first session on 1 Nov 2022!
I wish you every success with your studies on this course; See you soon!
Best wishes
Dr Deepak Prasad
