From Andragogy to Heutagogy
http://www.psy.gla.ac.uk/~steve/pr/Heutagogy.html
Heutagogy is the study of self-determined learning and draws together some of the ideas presented by these various approaches to learning. It is also an attempt to challenge some ideas about teaching and learning that still prevail in teacher centred learning and the need for, as Bill Ford (1997) eloquently puts it 'knowledge sharing' rather than 'knowledge hoarding'. In this respect heutagogy looks to the future in which knowing how to learn will be a fundamental skill given the pace of innovation and the changing structure of communities and workplaces.

Do not be the disappearing professor who only checks into a course once per week. The attention you give the course models expectations for your students. Disappearing from an online course is the fastest way to lose your students. They will disengage. Some tips for keeping your students engaged:
Make a schedule for checking your online course. Try setting a calendar reminder every day to help you remember.
Even if you don't respond to every discussion post, you need to read them. Online discussions can get out of control very quickly!
Respond to emails within 1 business day.
Grade assignments within 1 week.
Try your best and let your students know if you've fallen behind.
