Computers afford an environment in which use of communication tools can promote deep learning. This may be due to the creation of a varied learning environment, and to the induction of active, collaborative and self-directed learning. Students’ experience of web-supported learning was evaluated to test the assumption that computer-mediated- communication promotes higher order thinking. The association bet-ween presumed active use of communication tools, and perceptions concerning learning principles (varied and challenging learning environ-ment, application of higher order thinking skills, and lecturer feedback and encouragement to interact frequently), was evaluated. Perceived active use of e-mail and the chat facility was significantly associated with recognition of the need to apply higher-order thinking skills in order to do well in the course. Lecturers interested in using electronic communication tools to promote higher order thinking may find this book useful.
