Short Description

Our primary purpose of this study is to find the factors affecting students’ presence in real-time online class. The survey conducted Japanese university students and collected 46 valid answers. As the result, asking questions on blackboard, chatting friends via text were positively related to the students’ presence. Additional analysis showed students’ presence was related to learning engagement. Therefore, providing several communication opportunities between an instructor and students and among students could enhance the learning engagement.
