Mental Moves: A Qualitative Study of Student-Generated Community of Inquiry Constructs under COVID-19

• In Event: RTD- COVID Responses and Impacts (v)

Short Description

The context for online learning has changed dramatically since the community of inquiry (COI) model was initially posited. Teaching under COVID-19 has also introduced unprecedented variables into the mental models students apply to their own learning and to their evaluation of online teaching practices. Here we consider how the language used by students in STEM courses (n=137) to describe their online learning experiences aligns with or challenges the indicators traditionally attributed to COI.
