DLT 16 : Make space for ideas & questions

Asynchronous learning tools are used to enable students to ask questions, share their ideas and opinions, and collaborate outside of designated class times.   

Purpose of DLT  16

Asynchronous learning tools can provide learning opportunities for students to share and construct knowledge in collaborative settings. Asynchronous tools are particularly useful if your student cohort is learning using a mixture of delivery modes.  The extent of the use of asynchronous tools will be dependent on the distribution of the types of delivery modes throughout the semester.
