Dissertation
In addition to being an exciting and lengthy research task, a doctoral dissertation often forms the starting point for future academic work. Mine did, and is presented here for whatever use it can be to others.
Entitled "Community, Social Presence, and Engagement in Online Learning," it gave me the opportunity to explore learners' experiences of engaging with their learning community online.
