Farina, William J., Jr.; Bodzin, Alec M. – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2018
Web-based learning is a growing field in education, yet empirical research into the design of high quality Web-based university science instruction is scarce. A one-week asynchronous online module on the Bohr Model of the atom was developed and implemented guided by the knowledge integration framework. The unit design aligned with three identified…

Oztok, Murat; Zingaro, Daniel; Brett, Clare; Hewitt, Jim – Computers & Education, 2013
While the independent contributions of synchronous and asynchronous interaction in online learning are clear, comparatively less is known about the pedagogical consequences of using both modes in the same environment. In this study, we examine relationships between students' use of asynchronous discussion forums and synchronous private messages…
