I have found that using blackboard collaborate in my courses has been a great way to engage online learners. I have used collaborate in the past for synchonous activity especially group work. The students really enjoy hearing other students voices. I always use my webcam so the students can see me, and they appreciate it. It's a great opportunity for students to engage with each other. Has anyone else ever used collaborate in their courses to engage online learners?
