Mediating affect and attitude while learning in a web-based format- Paul Jerry, Heather Demish, Sandra Collins, NAWEB 2003

Abstract: The Campus Alberta Applied Psychology: Counselling Initiative delivers a Master's degree in counseling psychology using a primarily Web-based / summer school format. Students and faculty in this program are engaged in teaching and learning counselling psychology, a discipline that explores the interaction between two people or groups in a helping context. This paper explores the issues that have emerged as counselling psychology students and faculty expand their learning and teaching experiences in a technologically-rich web-based learning environment. Specific strategies include the deliberate use of counselling skills and the working alliance construct in maintaining virtual community, relationship-based approaches to computer-mediated communication forums participation, and instructor training for web-based teaching.
