I forgot to mention that I developed a very customized system for teaching online over 30 years ago. It is based on brief writing. It reduces idle chat and works on cogent and complex thinking. It is called REAP and more recently iREAP (Manzo, Manzo, Albee, 2002). You can find a quick description at: ://anthony-manzo.blogspot.com/2010/05/brief-writing-for-thoughtful-righting.html

This quest to identify actual Best Practices in Online Teaching is very pioneering. As I mentioned before the entire education industry, here and globally needs to get this elementary step done to really qualify as a profession. Oh, I see that I can upload a file. Here it is.

Congratulations,

Tony Manzo
