Abstract
Web-based learning environments have become an integral part of both traditional face-to-face and online education (Bonk & Graham, 2006; Moore, 2005). Over the past decade, the boom of online learning has contributed to the creation of course management systems that are designed to provide better accessibility to students. Many of the systems claim to support pedagogical visions with good human-computer interfaces (HCI) that encourage peer collaboration, knowledge construction, mentoring, and community building, using such basic tools as content management, course delivery, discussion boards, and assessment modules. The functionalities of a Web-based learning environment can either dictate or extend the instructional activities that a teacher can apply in the classroom.
