Ti Lynn, I agree totally with your comment that we need to understand and respect the learner's culture. Alas, is an online environment where the modality and rubrics are set and the cultural perspective is not as clear, there is a tendency to reach out to all learners in the same way albeit always with respect.

Different Strokes

F2F and virtual campuses march to different beats. For profit and traditional campuses differ as well especially on class sizes, instructor role and involvement, as well as venues of communication and contact hours. Other than the accreditors' requirements and rationale, should the responsibilities and expectations of the instructors vary? Your views are solicited with thanks. Samia
