communications are essential for a simple example of questions and answers(denoted Q/As) and up to more detailed example in mind. Intentional communicationswith confirmation on a real-time basis are also essential for better mutualcomprehension in distance education and learning[4][8]. Here, it enables users to send and confirm not only the individual learners’ Q/As, butalso their more in-depth intentions, with fewer disturbances present in a class context.Teaching staff can also control communication in many timely situations for a betterprogression of class context, with their logged data displayed during the process. At thesame time, mutually intentional communications are more available between learnersand teaching staff, or among learners. Student

The course is completely online, andstudent-teacher interaction comes primarily from Q&A discussion boards (Piazza) and one liveQ&A session per week (WebEx). The course revolves around a semester-long project in whichstudents develop a mini e-commerce web application complete with the design andimplementation of the web interface, the database, and the application business logic.In this paper, we talk about how the course evolved when the developer joined the educator toteach the course.

advantage of the geometric approach:replacing the onerous task of checking that a tensor’s components obey the proper transformationrule with the (usually) easier task of identifying a linear tensor relationship.As already mentioned, tensors of rank greater than two can also be regarded as linear operators.When a tensor of rank three operates on a vector, the result is a tensor of rank two. When a tensorof rank four operates on a tensor of rank two, the result is a tensor of rank two. When a tensor ofrank 4,086 operates on a tensor of rank 1,237, the result is a tensor of rank 2,849.

The computer programming task (two week session) is to have the robot write aword (student’s name) on an 8 ½ by 11 inch sheet of paper.

pattern was distinguished by the phrase “I feel” as well as the word“just.” The use of “just” seemed to reference an innate feeling the student had about theirattitudes and beliefs, rather than a specific affinity towards some trait such as creativity or actionsuch as problem solving. Students expressed two kinds of emotional responses to belongingness:comfort and enjoyment. An excerpt from Candace’s interview transcript is an example ofstudents’ comfort towards being in engineering. Q: Do you feel like you belong in engineering? Candace: Yes. I don't know, I've just never felt like I wasn't in the right place or I wasn't- I guess I've never felt like I didn't belong, so I don't know why I feel like I do belong, but
