Teaching behaviours have been studied in various arenas in higher education. Many studies have found that while most universities offer a traditional face-to-face communication format to deliver their courses, few offer them in online communication format. Since communication in the classroom is mostly oral rather than written, many students equate being able to learn in classroom with the effective communication of the instructor.
