Abstract
This study examined the relationship between instructor immediacy and instructional effectiveness of online teaching. Significant positive correlations were found between immediacy and students ratings of instructional effectiveness. Students who observed frequent immediacy behaviors in their instructors were more inclined to give high ratings to such things as the overall quality if instruction and the overall quality of course. Furthermore, the findings of this study have theoretical and methodological implications for the online instructional behavior research and the assessment of affective teaching.
