I found after doing the readings that I identified most with Ed Hootstein’s Model for online facilitation because it best matched my philosophy for online learning. I have put together a presentation summarizing Hootstein’s facilitation model.
Please find the link below:
I am very impressed with how you arranged your presentation. I have used prezi before but not this effectively. I agree with you r assessment of Hooten and his approach but I also like the model developed by Garrison, Anderson, and Archer (2000). It states the effective online educational community involves “three critical components: cognitive presence, social presence, and teaching presence.”
