STUDENT ENGAGEMENT, E-CONNECTIVITY, AND CREATING RELATIONSHIPS IN THE ONLINE CLASSROOM:
Emerging Themes
ABSTRACT
As complex as it is for traditional on ground students to return to school, online adult learners have difficulties engaging with other students, faculty, and administrators. With an emphasis on anytime, anywhere learning, students tend to isolate themselves and do not reach out for assistance. As more and more students take online courses, curriculum could be designed with the student in mind when it comes to learning, objectives, and outcomes of the objectives. Considering all the factors of student engagement (points to engage students) is difficult, yet, the researchers engaged in a deep review of peer-reviewed literature on the topic.
