About
Lesley Page is a scholar dedicated to revitalizing online pedagogy, with a primary focus on student engagement and motivation in digital learning environments. Her most-cited work, "Are You a Robot? Revitalizing Online Learning and Discussion Boards for Today’s Modern Learner" (2020), has garnered 15 citations and challenges educators to move beyond passive, automated interactions. Page argues that authentic online engagement flourishes only when both instructors and students are actively driven by course objectives, advocating for dynamic discussion boards that foster genuine human connection rather than robotic compliance. This contribution is particularly notable for its practical, learner-centered framework, offering instructors actionable strategies to combat disengagement in an era of increasing digital fatigue. Page’s research sits at the intersection of instructional design, educational psychology, and technology integration, making her work essential for faculty and administrators seeking to humanize online courses. By emphasizing motivation as a shared responsibility, she provides a timely counterpoint to purely automated solutions, ensuring that modern learners remain active, curious participants in their own education.
