Alexia - Glad to hear you had such a good experience with you on-line classes! What you have said here fits with the experience of one of our Intro. Psych. instructors teaching on-line... Even students who have had to drop the class say they will miss the interactions with others in the class. I will definitely be building in an element of required interaction between students, perhaps in the form of bulletin board type discussions on perhaps the topic of the week. I'm definitely interested in receiving Email copy of on-line work you have done... But I am not quite sure what you are offering. Is it assignments you were asked to complete?
