Abstract
While online courses are not new, the challenges they create for communication educators remain significant. The purpose of this study is to identify those issues communication educators confront in teaching one type of online communication courses, asynchronous courses that include course delivery, information transaction, and communication via the Internet. The authors discuss the importance of this dynamic form of course delivery to the new generation of students, the Millenials, as they permeate higher education institutions.
Notes
Although this number may appear to be very low, the precise number of NCA and AEJMC members who have taught online courses in the past three years is unknown. The representativeness of the sample may be comprised, or the number may be adequate if the number of people teaching online courses is relatively small.
