Online Student Engagement

A couple of weeks ago a few librarians had interesting email exchange about engaging students with online activities. I didn’t blog it at the time – though I should have. So what follows is transcript of it woven together from a dozen or so email messages…
The thread began with a comment on how one librarian was “struggling with the ongoing tension between being online, and consuming stuff in a browser. What is the expectation of students re: browser delivered material. Do they think of it as being an offline environment, or an online one?”
