There is a definite need for this course because more and more distance education courses are being offered at the high school and university levels, therefore making online collaboration essential for success in online learning environments. The intended audiences for this course are high school, post secondary, and distance education students and/or instructors. The intended outcomes of this course are for students to be able to create, share, and collaborate using Google doc’s tools: Document, Spreadsheet, and Presentation. Our hybrid course was developed and hosted through weebly.com and having connecting links through Laulima, which is used by the entire University of Hawaii system. We felt that synchronous and asynchronous sessions will curb much of the frustration felt by online students. It is expected that this course will fill an overlooked void in distance education and better prepare students for online collaboration and learning.
