Description
Higher education has entered an information age in which power comes to those who have information and know how to access it. However, as more and more classes rely upon the integration of these technologies in classroom activities and assignments, instructors have discovered a pedagogical bonus - more frequent communication from the students using electronic mail (Email). However, with the use of these new electronically enhanced tools comes the need for assessment. Teachers who use electronic communication tools in distance learning programs want to know how effective these tools are in terms of student outcomes. Additionally, administrators want to know if the cost of the new technologies is justified in terms of student learning.
