We all know that asking questions is one of the most important steps a student can make to become successful. Whether it be to specify an assignment or to clarify a learning concept, questions are the only way for a student to keep moving forward and be productive. In an online setting, the atmosphere in which a student can easily and accessibly ask questions is often removed, leaving students feeling disconnected. We have found a solution to this distance learning in a series of features that are made to specifically enhance a student’s collaborative experience.
Students using IQ education solutions can now ask questions to an entire online community, reaching a vast amount of students at one time. This feature will quickly increase the chances of any question being answered in a quick, time efficient manner.
IQ also wants to allow students to be able to target specific, relevant audiences when asking questions. Students can post to specific groups, categories, and topics to ensure the right audience is being reached. These are just some of the great question management features IQ has to offer:
-Post a question to everyone, a group or select category within your network
-Post questions on a specific topic
-Select close dates on questions
-Listing of experts for the topic
-Share questions on Facebook and Twitter
-Attach images to a question
-Embed videos, links, Dropbox documents, etc. to a question
-Filter questions by open, closed, and answered
-Filter questions by topic
-Filter questions by time (day, week, month, year)
Students can be emerged in a learning environment that puts efficiency and clarity as it’s top priorities. When students can receive and share helpful feedback from one another, a sense of community learning is created. Removing distance from distance learning is key to creating a successful online learning base.
