University of Toledo professors Claire Stuve and Kevin Gibbs are highlighting the importance of a synchronous component to online courses, of monitoring student interaction, and of collecting data for constant improvement when aiming for student success online. In a piece for eCampus News, the duo write that synchronous element gives students a chance to interact with their peers and instructors, virtually, in real time, meeting the needs of traditional and nontraditional students with recorded interactions to be reviewed later. Tracking how students engage with course materials, how long they watch videos, and whether they review gives instructors data for early warnings and helps crystallize the power of technology in student outcomes.
