Willie , You are so smart; you are ahead of many of us. You have to have an assessment plan along with your technology plan. You want the students to have a rich experience but still be successful in learning. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Kimberly, You are so right. We can't just wait this out and hope it goes away. It will change, morph in to something else but we can't just put our head in the sand and assume we don't have to address it. Students need to prepare to use these tools. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Stephanie, While I agree with you we want to make sure that we don't make the online course a correspondence course. You want to make sure that you include the communication with other students also. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson

Samia, Yes, Yes, Yes! We have to share, talk, evaluate, and repeat. Students will "hear" what you say to them in different ways, you just have to be diligent in keeping the message in front of the students. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson
