With Students Communicating Online With Students Communicating with students is a very effective way to engage students in learning.
Research shows that interaction increases student performance.
With new technology, the number of ways that students can interact has been expanded and created channels that overcome some of the barriers experienced in traditional communication. The Internet itself supports dozens of technologies for communicating. This workshop will cover some of the more basic and most popular forms of online communication including email, forums, chat rooms, MOOs, and databases. The most frequently used form of online communication between faculty and students is email. Email is messages that are sent to an inbox in chronological order and can be sent to one or to many students at one time.
