Building Community with Technology
Ten strategies for learners to reflect, share, and connect

Effective Learning Environments Do not Happen by Chance
Ten Strategies for Building Community with Technology provides proven strategies developed over the authors’ thirty years’ experience designing and teaching online classes. The ten strategies demonstrate that technology is not an impediment to building a learning community, but instead a tool for designing more effective learning environments than are those in traditional, face-to-face classrooms. Used the right way, technology can provide more instructional time, more opportunities for students to reflect, more chances to share and connect, and more access to give feedback.
