Managing asynchronous online discussions can be time-consuming for both instructors and students. Finding a balance between quality interaction and workload can prove difficult. Zvi Goldman (2011) addresses this challenge in the article, Balancing quality and workload in asynchronous online discussions (Journal of Online Learning and Teaching Vol. 7, No. 2, June 2011). the article discusses how to achieve a win-win balance between quality and workload for students and instructors participating in asynchronous online discussions. A Discussion Guideline document including minimum requirements and best practices is included. The approach covers three phases: design and development, setting up expectations, and launch and management.
