Description
INTRODUCTION The rapid development of technology during recent years has broken down the physical and temporal barriers of schooling by removing time and space constraints. The evolution and innovation of the social system have taken place by conveying knowledge and experience in the human society. We now live in a global village sharing knowledge and exchanging information with people all around us, near and far. Lehtinen, Hakkarinen, Lipponen, Rahikainen, and Muukkonen (1999) stated that "One of the basic requirements for education in the future is to prepare learners for participation in a networked, information society in which knowledge will be the most critical resource for social and economic development" (p. 2). Working in an online environment, more and more instructors realize the importance of providing quality feedback, encouraging intrapersonal interactions, and engaging students in meaningful and effective learning activities that will prepare them for life in this networked world.
