Abstract

This case study examines asynchronous interaction and engagement with Business School undergraduate and graduate students over a three year period; few other studies have investigated online engagement over an extended length of time. It illustrates an overall course redesign process in response to learning experiences that attempts to:
  • increase student interaction with course materials independently of tutorials and lectures,
  • encourage more reflective practice on essay writing capabilities (from both the tutor and student perspective), and
  • allow more productive use of face-to-face instructional time.
