Clarity of Content Design

Students may perceive learning in a Web-based course easier if the material is presented using a similar format for each content area (Swan, 2001).

students perceived more learning when greater consistency was found in the structural design of the course modules.

Streamlining structural course content for simplicity and repetitiveness may help enhance learner-content interactions and help compensate for the lack of face-to-face meetings.

Web-Based Medium

The medium used to deliver course information may affect whether students actually learn the content.

The cyberspace course provided lectures on CD-ROM, electronic bulletin, electronic mail (e-mail), and chat rooms for asynchronous discussions. Additionally, online discussion rooms were available for synchronous discourse

2. Learner-Learner Interaction

The interaction that occurs among students is extremely dissimilar between a Web-based course and the traditional classroom course.

Learner-learner interaction can be between one student and another or between several students

Four types of peer behavior

(a) participationb) response(c) provision of affective feedback(d) short, focused messaging.

Collaborative projects may lessen feelings of isolation and promote a sense of a learning community (Abrahamson, 1998; Palloff & Pratt, 2001) in the Web-based classroom.

3. Learner-Instructor Interaction

The interaction that transpires between students and faculty is intended to help reinforce student understanding of the material or elucidate meanings.

Interacting with instructors can help students clarify nebulous points and reinforce correct interpretation of course information.

In the Web-based course, most often this type of interaction must be transmitted by electronic means, such as chat discussions or e-mail communications.

In the traditional classroom, the instructor often takes center stage and becomes a lecturer; in the Web-based format, the instructor becomes more of a facilitator.

Learner-instructor interactions help to reinforce understanding of the course content and/or clarify nebulous learning points.

4. Learner-Interface InteractionThe use of technology in education

strongly advocated that technology use should support the seven principles of good practice in education.

The relationship between student and technology should work in tandem to promote online learning.
