Abstract

In this regular feature of "Educational Technology," Michael F. Shaughnessy and Mark Viner present their interview with Curt Bonk, Professor of Instructional Systems Technology at Indiana University and President of CourseShare; and Elaine Khoo, Research Fellow at the Wilf Malcolm Institute of Education, University of Waikato, Hamilton, New Zealand. Their interview centered around seven questions that asked: (1) What they were doing recently, in researching and writing?; (2) How would they respond to someone who wanted to have a "traditional" online classroom or environment?; (3) What would be the top five things they would want a person to take away related to online learning?; (4) What did they believe are the main themes or critical aspects for successful online learning?; (5) Is there an overall learning theory they chose to drive their online courses?; (6) Often it is heard someone is taking a class at the public library as they do not have Internet access at home or a laptop. How problematic is this, or should we be commending their diligence and motivation?; and (7) Where do mobile technologies fit into the scheme of things? Responses to these questions are provided in detail within the article.
