Communication & Interaction
Course software includes three primary methods of asynchronous and synchronous communication:
Private course email (asynchronous--not at the same time; delayed response)
Bulletin Board Discussions (asynchronous - delayed reading/responses)
Chat (Used for online office hours to be posted on bulletin board; Synchronous--all at the same time;
immediate response & discussion)
Distance learning need not sacrifice interaction. Our previous courses have had many interesting and
educational discussions using our course Bulletin Board (Discussions & Private Mail) and Chat Rooms.
While it is not yet possible to use video cameras on the internet (this will come in the next few years I think)
for facial expression, tone of voice, body language, etc.. you may find that online communication can be
efficient and satisfying. Student-instructor contact can also be frequent and productive using the private
course email as well as traditional telephone or web cam "face-to-face" appointments when possible. Many
students have reported that they have more contact with an online instructor than when in a traditional
classroom.
The instructor and student share the responsibility for interaction. The instructor will facilitate
communication but the extent of each student's interaction & participation is entirely up to the individual
student. A portion of your course grade will assess your participation --- keep in mind that our course
software keeps a record of your logins, pages read and time spent online. You can build normal peer
relationships by using initiative and the technology at hand. Contact your fellow students frequently--get to
know each other. Provide the types of advice and course assistance that you would in a face-to-face learning
environment. "Raise your hand" by posting questions on the BB.
The instructor will make every effort to respond to course email within 48 hours, Monday-Friday. All
assignments & projects will be graded within two weeks (similar to traditional classrooms).
You are expected to log onto the course website frequently--daily is recommended, but some students
manage with 3 - 4 times per week. You must develop a habit of checking our course website--this will assist
us in all aspects of communication and interaction.
Discussion Requirements
-READING all assigned BB posts from other students and the instructor
-POSTING - Discussion topics will last 2 weeks. A minimum of 4 posts per two week period (2 per week);
Not all posts receive full credit--post in depth; use citations and links, and post frequently for maximum
credit [8 discussion points per week is expected for a grade of "A" for participation]
Respond to the instructor, initiate new scholarly discussions and respond to other students. [Do not depend
on the instructor for all discussion questions. Begin new discussions that are of interest to you by starting a
new "thread."] Participate in any required debates. Normal, weekly discussions will be assessed by the
instructor using the following rubric:

Discussion Evaluation
Posts significant newinformation, ideas orperspective/debate indepth; with support
5.0 pts
Posts new information,provides new perspectiveor asks a clarifyingquestion in depth; withsupport

Posts new informationwithout depth; valuableanecdotal information thatsupports topic
3.0 - 3.9 pts
Simple response,agreement, clarifies sameinformation
2.0 - 2.9 pts
Simple response 0 - 1.9 pts
BB posts should demonstrate scholarly writing, thought and logic. When appropriate, provide citations to
course materials, outside sources or internet links to improve your contribution to the overall learning of
your colleagues via discussion posts. Posts that are simple responses (e.g. "Great idea, Eleanor") or not
related to course content receive "0" points. This does not mean that you are not free to share interesting
events at your school, or other friendly information. Please do! Please use the "STUDENT LOUNGE" forcasual posts.
Most students feel that our online discussions are one of the most valuable improvements offered by online
learning over face-to-face traditional classrooms. All time and bias restraints are removed in online
classrooms which facilitates healthy interaction. Please take advantage of this unique opportunity and
participate regularly on your course BB.
Synchronous Communication
The instructor will be available periodically throughout the course for "real time" interaction in the chat
room to answer questions. Students may also arrange for real time (synchronous) appointments with theinstructor or each other at any time during the semester. Due to the variation in student time zones and the
extensive time needed for online teaching the number of office hours will be limited. Please contact me if
you need a synchronous meeting appointment. I will be more than happy to accommodate your busy
schedule on an individual basis, just as I would on campus.

Course Mail
Course mail will be answered as quickly as possible by the instructor (usually within 48 hours of receipt-
Monday- Friday). In case of emergencies (Laulima server crash), the instructor may be contacted by regular
email: [email protected] NOTE: In case of a UH server crash or another national emergency that
disables access here in Hawaii (floods, hurricanes, tsunamis, earthquakes), please contact the instructor via
telephone for instructions.
Written Evaluation Criteria
Grade of A "Excellent". Work is complete, represents thorough grasp of concepts, is extremely neat and
professional (typed or word-processed) and is submitted on time; Shows exceptional effort, contains few
errors, outstanding use of the English language, and would serve as a model for other graduate students or
professionals.
Grade of B "Good". Work is complete and is neat and professional (typed or word-processed) but
submitted past deadline or lacks knowledge of some concepts; contains frequent grammatical or concepterrors; Shows good effort but would not be the best model for others at the graduate level.
Grade of C or below. Work is incomplete, submitted days past deadline, is somewhat sloppy or contains
many errors; represents a lack of knowledge of many concepts or weak effort; poor use of English language;
Not representative of graduate standing.
