Giesbers, B.; Rienties, B.; Tempelaar, D.; Gijselaers, W. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2014
With the increased affordances of synchronous communication tools, more opportunities for online learning to resemble face-to-face settings have recently become available. However, synchronous communication does not afford as much time for reflection as asynchronous communication. Therefore, a combination of synchronous and asynchronous…

Chao, K.-J.; Hung, I.-C.; Chen, N.-S. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2012
Online learning has been rapidly developing in the last decade. However, there is very little literature available about the actual adoption of online synchronous assessment approaches and any guidelines for effective assessment design and implementation. This paper aims at designing and evaluating the possibility of applying online synchronous…

Pfister, H.-R.; Oehl, M. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2009
Net-based collaborative learning discourses often suffer from deficiencies such as lack of coherence and coordination. It is suggested that the provision of two functionalities, referencing and typing, which learners may optionally use to ground their contributions during a chat-based discourse, can improve collaborative learning. In particular,…
