| dc.description | Along with my colleagues from the University of Saskatchewan, the Ontario College of Art and Design, and the University of Ontario Institute of Technology, I presented a history and current status report of synchronous coaching at AU’s Write Site. (Please see attached documents.) A discussion followed about the need for on-line tutoring/coaching and about some of the best ways to deliver it. There was much interest in the results of a Write Site pilot project to deliver online coaching via Elluminate. A Wiki was established so participants could continue the roundtable discussion after the presentation. | en |
