Student Satisfaction in Online Classes is More Than Just Zoom!
It's no secret that online coursework can feel isolating for students. Tools like Zoom have helped bridge the gap between instructors and classmates, all of whom are working from a distance.
But did you know that students feel connected with their instructor in ways that extend beyond synchronous class sessions?
