This study examined the correlation between social constructivist learning, sense of community, and learner satisfaction in an asynchronous learning environment using a nonexperimental, cross-sectional, correlational design. The study focuses on three questions: (1) What is the relationship between social constructivist learning and sense of…

An experiment compared asynchronous versus synchronous instruction in an online quantitative course. Mann-Whitney U-tests, correlation, analysis of variance, t tests, and multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA) were utilized to test the hypothesis that more high-quality online experiential learning interactions would increase grade.…

In this research, we examine the design, construction, and implementation of a dynamic, easy to use, feedback mechanism for social software. The tool was integrated into an existing university's online learning community (OLC). In line with constructivist learning models and practical information systems (IS) design, the feedback system provides…
