Positioning My 02 – Narrowing the Search

Description
Asynchronous discussion-based online teaching and learning is one of the promising tools in promoting high-level thinking.
Rational
I would want to examine potential of asynchronous online discussion, especially in term of high-level (critical) thinking. The finding focuses on conditions that foster, and evaluation techniques of critical thinking. Bender’s (2003) believes that humanities, social sciences, and writing are well suit for online education; I then hope to find support evidences for Bender’s assertion and potential in other disciplines that has potential for this educational model.
