The End: Asynchrounous Communication

Today, Sunday, 9/12 marks the end of of my role as facilitator of the Discussion Board for the topic Asynchronous Communication (AC). The class discussion went well with a number of my classmates discussing the benefits and challenges associated with this particular communication delivery system. Over the course of the week, other important topics and issues emerged from the DB comments such as workload, time management, blended platforms, online vs. face-to-face classroom student interactions and engagement, student role and evaluation as well as teaching and learning in an AC platform. Overall, I truly enjoyed my time as the DB facilitator and I want to personally that all my fellow classmates, Professor Lei, and Leigh for this rich educational experience. ~Aja
