The findings of this experiment show that we were not able to elicit a robust tele-presence effect yet. We discuss the results in relation to the present state of technology, interface
The Roles of Extrinsic Factors in a Community of Inquiry Model of E-learning
"... ABSTRACT Despite its proliferation in higher learning institutions, e-learning has been criticised as being nothing more than trivial online conversations, or a mere means of delivering class materials electronically. If e-learning is to address such criticisms and become an effective pedagogical pl ..."
