It was great to get to present with my friend Tony Pina about regular and substantive interaction, and how important it is for online leaders to understand. We presented this at the 2023 Distance Learning Administrator conference. 

Regular and Substantive Interaction Resources

• Here are our slides from the presentation today. “Regular and Substantive Interaction is Critical to DL Administrators“.
• This is my YouTube playlist of presentations from others about RSI. I tried to include some very short introductory videos as well as comprehensive “whole story” videos like the one from WCET.
• This summary article from Empire State University includes a good overview of RSI including key definitions. It has a useful list of resources, and also references at the bottom.
• Here’s a three-page PDF guide for faculty about RSI from Everett Community College. Good summary.
• This 2020 blog post from WCET describes a bit of history of RSI and the definitions of distance and correspondence courses.
• Also from WCET in 2019: Interpreting what is Required for “Regular and Substantive Interaction”
• And from WCET in 2021: Regular and Substantive Interaction Refresh: Reviewing & Sharing Our Best Interpretation of Current Guidance and Requirements
• Slides from WCET presentation on RSI in December 2021.
