"'Sometimes I Forget I'm in an Online Class!' Why Place Matters for Meaningful Student Online Writing Experiences"

Description
This essay argues that “place” and “space” are a critical conceptual framework in the online writing classroom and leads students to have meaningful writing experiences. Drawing on what Eodice et al. describe as “personal connection” for writing students, the author invites online writing instructors to pay attention to how the concepts of “place” and “space”—as both
natural/material and constructed/metaphorical—might inform our disciplinary understanding of online writing instruction.
