Student engagement is crucial for learning, and especially so in online learning. For a student to be a successful online learner, they need to engage with the online content, with their peers and with the educator. This article presents an accounting module of a fully online degree where engagement was purposefully integrated using an online engagement framework. Within this framework, the educator regularly interacted with the students to ensure that they were engaging with the online material and a group task was assigned where students had to collaboratively construct knowledge and display it in a video. An action research design was followed to determine the degree of engagement within the module and to improve on it for future modules. Results indicate that regular interaction did result in more students being active and ultimately successfully completing the module. Student reflections on the group task indicated that there are definite benefits in creating knowledge collaboratively although the format in which it should be presented needs to be reconsidered.

学生参与完全在线会计模块：一项行动研究

学生的参与对于学习至关重要，尤其是在在线学习中。为了使学生成为成功的在线学习者，他们需要与在线内容，同龄人和教育者互动。本文介绍了完全在线学位的会计模块，其中使用在线参与框架有目的地整合了参与。在此框架内，教育工作者定期与学生互动，以确保他们与在线资料互动，并分配了小组任务，学生必须共同构建知识并将其显示在视频中。随后进行了一项行动研究设计，以确定模块内的参与程度，并为以后的模块进行改进。结果表明，定期的互动确实导致更多的学生活跃，并最终成功完成了该模块。学生对小组任务的反思表明，尽管需要重新考虑应以何种形式呈现知识，但通过协作创造知识肯定有好处。
