A Structural Equation Model of Predictors for Effective Online Learning (2005, background): “Moreover, course grades tend to have a relatively restricted range at the graduate level (Rovai, 2002).”
Does the Community of Inquiry Framework Predict Outcomes in Online MBA Courses (2007, methodology): “Collaborative activities allow learners greater opportunities for increased social presence and a greater sense of online community, which also tends to improve the socioemotional climate in online courses (Richardson & Swan, 2003; Rovai, 2002).”
Socio-emotional connections: identity, belonging and learning in online interactions. A literature review (2014, background): “…contributing to building community has been the driving force behind many studies (such as Rovai, 2002b; Ouzts, 2006; Bartlett, 2008; Exter et al., 2009) with a strong connection between sense of community and student satisfaction (Rovai, 2002c; Dawson, 2006; Liu et al., 2007; Koh & Hill, 2009).”
Improving online social presence through asynchronous video (2012, background): “…sense of closeness to and belonging in a class community may help preservice teachers learn (Liu, Magjuka, Bonk, & Lee, 2006; Caspi & Blau, 2008; Rovai, 2002a) and develop a positive disposition toward effective technology integration (Beyerbach, Walsh, & Vannatta, 2001; Ertmer, 2005; Putnam &…”
Hearing their voices: Factors doctoral candidates attribute to their persistence (2012, background): “For example, attrition rates in distance programs are consistently 10% - 20% higher than in traditional, residential programs (Rovai, 2002).”
ONLINE COMMUNITY OF INQUIRY REVIEW: SOCIAL, COGNITIVE, AND TEACHING PRESENCE ISSUES (2019, background): “In support of this perspective, there is evidence that a sense of community can be created online, although this is not a trivial challenge [1, 2].”
Podcasting Communities and Second Language Pronunciation (2008, background): “Recent research (e.g., Rovai, 2002, among others) has shown that a stronger sense of classroom community is associated with increased motivation as well as improved performance.”
Development and Validation of the Online Student Connectedness Survey (OSCS) (2012, background): “Therefore, online teaching and learning can result in feelings of psychological isolation, sense of loneliness, or disconnectedness according to researchers (Motteram & Forrester, 2005; Rovai, 2002a).”
The Relationship Between Students’ Perceived Sense of Community and Satisfaction, Achievement, and Retention in an Online Course (2008, positive): “Other commonly-used measures of SOC (e.g., Rovai, 2002b) include items assessing feelings of student-student and studentinstructor connection and learning.”

Blended Learning and Sense of Community: A comparative analysis with traditional and fully online graduate courses.”
The Predictive Relationship Among the Community of Inquiry Framework, Perceived Learning and Online, and Graduate Students’ Course Grades in Online Synchronous and Asynchronous Courses (2016, background): “Thus, the concept of sense of community is built upon constructivist views of learning and social learning theory (Swan et al., 2009) and is deemed an essential component to supporting social and intellectual learning goals (Rovai, 2002).”
SENSE OF COMMUNITY IN ONLINE COURSES (2006, neutral): “The CCS performed in a manner consistent with the prior study conducted by Rovai (2002b).”
Feelings of alienation and community among higher education students in a virtual classroom (2005, methodology): “The Classroom Community Scale produces social community and learning community subscales.”
Is There an Optimal Design for On-Line MBA Courses? (2005, background): “" Although collaborative learning and community development are characteristics commonly associated with effective on-line learning (Alavi et al., 1995; Brower, 2003; Palloff & Pratt, 1999; Rovai, 2002; Swan, 2003), research shows that learners also need time to process and contextualize this collab”
