format. For example, in a face-to-face format, collaboration and pairprogramming works well. Some instructors have even been successful implementing distributedpair programming in an online course [5]. However, in a flexible schedule, online format (Flex),the implementation of these activities is particularly challenging. In the Flex format, studentsstart the course at different points in the semester, work at their own pace and may not beworking on the same module at the same time. The asynchronous nature of the class makes itparticularly difficult for students to interact with each other. We propose the use of discussionboards within the learning management system to help create peer-to-peer code sharingexperiences in a Flex class. In this

like to take notes on an iPad because I don't have to carry around notebooks and easier to look through old notes. I was taking a math course. One day I was running late and forgot to bring my notebook for that class which eventually led me to taking notes on my iPad. The professor at the time was so anti-electronics in class that they did not believe I was taking notes on my iPad. Even after showing them I indeed was taking notes for that class, they told me to put it up and ask someone for a piece of paper and pencil. I don’t understand how you are going to tell a student how to take their notes in college. Many professors have a no electronics policy in their syllabus. I understand how
