Lack of face-to-face contact with the instructor makes it difficultfor the instructor to get good and timely feedback. If the course is not designed properly,interactions among students seem to be limited in scope and opportunities for students to learnfrom each other are wasted. More importantly, an instructor has very few options for ensuringthat students develop critical thinking skills. Discussions are extremely important in distance education

engineering education in the United States remains largelyunexplored.A distinctive feature of knowledge building is that it is idea-centered, a characteristic essential ina knowledge age pedagogy. By focusing on ideas rather than schoolwork and tasks, knowledgebuilding supports the intentional, reflective, and metacognitive engagement required for deeplearning. In a knowledge-building environment the focus of the learning community is oncontinually improving ideas. It begins with a question of understanding that is developed by theparticipants, such as, Why do we need water to survive? Learners are encouraged to generate andpost their ideas about the topic--typically in an asynchronous, online group workspace such asprovided by Knowledge Forum

Many students have complaints not necessarily in terms of the technicalcomponent of the education, but in terms of presentation style, grading techniques, and instructorenthusiasm. Students also express frustration in the processes of progressing through theeducational system, from program admission through graduation, and feel that there arebreakdowns in communication with faculty. The issue at hand is to determine where thesebreakdowns and gaps occur, and adapt the current methods and mentalities in a fashion thatcloses these gaps.Currently, faculty
