“…An ongoing work [5] is examining how recent advances in information technology can make it possible to offer substantive, interactive online courses. Another ongoing study [6] focuses on the relationship between critical thinking skills and the amount of information provided to students in an online setup. Ellis and Cohen [7] explore the role of wikis, blogs, and forums for communication, organization and information process in online courses.…”
