Bridge between student and professor, informality invokes a sense of friendship, personality that might not be gotten through use of more formal language all the time
Definition and boundaries are essential because the students will not necessarily honor your privacy- we don’t really live in an age where privacy is valued so much anymore, as evidenced by YouTube and MySpace and Twitter… some things that have worked well is online instructors holding synchronous time during the week, say 1 or 2 hours on diffferent days to get students engaged Also, questioning and making it feel like there is always a free exchange of conversation makes you less likely to be considered the sage, and much more the guide or faciliator and in my experience students respond to this online, they like to be masters of their own ideas
Consider the context and be clear throughout the assignments what you want out of students when – you’ll always have some students who have a tough time with rules but making yourself more human really helps and they will honor you more Variety is good and students seem to enjoy it when you have lots of options for them to get their information - multiple learning styles
