Abstract

The issue of identity awareness is rarely discussed in the context of its relevance to professional growth or autonomy, and as an essential requirement for independent functioning in a web-based learning environment. The need for integrity is at the core of every interaction, the stress on doing one’s best for the special satisfaction one derives from it, rather than for recognition and awards – these topics are related to awareness of the individual identity and development of a strong professional and ethical self which will help students to remain focused and skilled at self-monitoring strategies, essential in the online learning environment. There are various other issues related to web identity. This chapter will not deal with issues such as telepresence which is related to technological innovation creating a virtual presence, or social presence, which deals with interpersonal interaction; rather the discussion here is more intrapersonal in nature.
