Dr. Sexton-Radek describes her presentation this way:
My presentation involves an examination of two methods of assignnments-posting to an online board or written/word processed as part of general course assignment. Literature in this area of pedagogy identifies both suportive and critical views of each method. Elements such as the style of writing, use of grammar and clarity of theme expressed have been presented in the literature. The comparison of two course levels (entry level and upper level courses) indicated some qualitative difference. This comparison represents more of a interesting exploration and a controlled study in this area would be considered the next step.
