Abstract

The purpose of this chapter of the section is to provide some background information on “discussion teaching” as it relates to online discussion. Suggestions are made for a systematic design model that can be used in planning a course, or an individual lesson, that is based primarily on asynchronous, online discussion. The model, with some slight modifications, may also be used to design other types of technology-enhanced learning materials.
