…individual participant’s success with online

communication depends on effective use of the

technical resources available, along with the

guidance and leadership provided by a skilled

instructor moderator and tempered by the

learner’s own capabilities and preferences for

collaborative, cooperative, active, and self-

directed learning. (Fahy)

Many institutions support learning

by taking full advantage of the

emerging technologies. Web 2.0

tools are a facilitator element of

online teaching for they provide

“both the content of learning, and

the tools to promote learning itself.”
