Our two main research questions (still needing better definition--but . . .) are: 1. At what stage do learners start to become independent learners online? 2. What supports do learners need to become independent learners in an online environment? We are focusing on the first four International Adult Literacy Survey Levels of literacy here. (Roughly equivalent to grades 1-8--that is they already know the alphabet and have very basic computer literacy skills) Would appreciate any help you may be able to provide.
