In this CIDER session, Sherri Melrose provides an encore of the presentation given earlier this month at the CADE conference in Winnipeg in which she presented the findings from her recently published qualitative research project. The project was designed to explore healthcare students’ ideas about and activities related to instructional immediacy behaviors within a masters program offered exclusively through a WebCT online environment. A constructivist theoretical perspective and an action research approach framed the study. Three overarching themes were identified and used to explain and describe significant features of instructional immediacy behaviors that healthcare learners who graduated from either a Master of Nursing of Master of Health Studies distance education program found valuable. The presentation will be followed by an open discussion of the study and the implications for future practice and research.
