Gillette, David H.
New Directions for Teaching and Learning, n67 p59-70 Fall 1996
Electronic media provide new opportunities for engaging college students in and out of the classroom. Electronic mail, teleconferencing, and Internet resources can increase instructor availability and extend class discussion. Issues to consider in planning for their use include achievement of course objectives, level of computer sophistication, time commitment, class size, course structure, technical difficulties, complexity, privacy, and time management.
