Interaction in your course is one of the most important elements for which to design.  This includes the interaction your students will have with the content itself, you as the instructor, as well as fellow students in the course.

Points to consider (Please click links for more information):

• Forums and other tools promote discussion.
• Instructor communication is clearly defined.
• Student-to-student interaction is present.
• A basic time-on-task analysis has been performed by the instructor and deemed reasonable and appropriate for the level of the course.
