An Affinity for Asynchronous Learning
09/04/14 15:41
Kate Daniels of FITS shared this piece of research (An Affinity for Asynchronous Learning) that makes five assertions about synchronous learning:
- Synchronous meetings are biased against certain time zones.
- Synchronous meetings are culturally unaware.
- Synchronous meetings are biased against families and busy people.
- Synchronous meetings that involve audiovisuals are elitist.
- Synchronous meetings rely heavily on linguistic capital.
Worth reading if deciding whether to teach asynchronously or synchronously.
