  - Recorded sessions allow students time to digest the session content and\/or conduct further research before posing questions in a discussion group. This is better for more deliberate thinkers and, in some cases, for students whose first language is not English.<\/li>\n\t

  - Students can re-watch recorded sessions to deepen their learning, or to review content prior to a final exam. Students can likewise review threads in discussion groups long after those discussions have taken place.<\/li>\n\t
