“…For students, the online classroom requires navigation of CMS tools, social and academic interaction with classmates, proactive contact with the instructor, and participation from beginning to end (Shen et al, ) without the benefit of a shared physical location and (often) common meeting time. These are significant demands and students can easily become isolated or even “lost” (Breton et al, ; Shen et al, ). Students in online learning environments are more likely to drop out than students in traditional settings (Ali & Leeds, ; Xu & Jaggars, ), and academic leaders report students’ self‐discipline and lower retention rates as continued barriers to the growth of online instruction (Allen & Seaman, ).…”

Through online discussions, students articulate their own views and have greater access to the perspectives of others, which enables them to negotiate, challenge, and ultimately co‐construct knowledge (Breton et al, ; Meyers, ).…”

“…Gonzalez (2009) discusses the shift from teacher-centered/content-oriented learning to student-centered/learning-oriented learning that has occurred in online teaching. Breton et al (2005) argue for the value of increased discussion and diversity of opinion that is encouraged in the online classroom.
