Enhancement with Social Presence:
The introduction of images and video/audio provide characterization to the person involved. This builds personal connection between the instructor and student.
Possible Improvements:
Greater length of comments in respect to diversity of topics and background would be the most notable enhancement. Including video and audio would be an enrichment over the audio alone. Embedding video information to the assignment expectations and/or the learning activities would provide greater detail and direction, and serve to reduce student stress. Accessing/interacting with the student social presence would provide the instructor with greater layers of understanding regarding the individuals.
