 * Presenters:**

The isolation of online learning often makes it difficult for students to articulate when they may be having difficulties in a course. The online instructor may not learn until the course is over that student satisfaction was low. Therefore, a collaborative assessment process integrated in online learning improves students and instructor relationships and unifies the online community by clearly identifying silimarities and differences in course satisfaction and engagement. In a collaborative evaluation students see similarities and differences in course engagement on the shared document. The shared document then becomes a platform for improving communication for student - student and instructor - student online relationships. In addition, students feel empowered by taking an active role in the transformation of the course, and ultimately for their own learning. This learning object will assist the online instructors to implement collaborative assessment in his/her own course as part of a cyclical reflective process in course evaluation and course design transformation.
