- Title
STUDENT-TO-STUDENT INTERACTION.
- Authors
Bickle, Marianne C.; Rucker, Ryan
- Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine student-to-student interactions in an asynchronous online undergraduate course in higher education. Respondents (N=228) were students enrolled in an undergraduate course taught by one of the authors. Regression analyses were conducted to measure students' (a) perceived ability to learn, (b) feeling of a community within the asynchronous course, and (c) ability to communicate. Results reveal that the use of VoiceThread technology within group assignments significantly influences students' ability to learn, their feeling of a community, and their ability to communicate. The technology provides students with a more humanizing method of interaction.
