Why create a course exploring how online discussions develop social skills?
Ultimately, awareness of emotions empowers an individual with the insight needed to measure perceptions and interactions against personal mores in order to define these dynamics as successes or failures, providing valuable information to use as the foundation for future behavior. Online, these relationships are most readily replicated in discussion forums and virtual reality. To be sure, virtual reality (VRGET: Virtual Reality Graded Exposure Therapy) is currently being used in this fashion to treat established cases of PTSD by desensitizing individuals to innocuous dynamics, thereby increasing innate resilience. The audience facing what may be the largest obstacle preventing participation in this particular forum for social evolution are the victims of torture (e.g. terrorism); arguably, the majority of people living on the planet today. Victims of terror lose the ability to identify emotions due to reduced blood flow to the left-frontal lobe. Consequently, these people struggle with the awareness needed to form healthy resilience. Fortunately, nearly half of the world's population uses the internet and many of us can benefit from online interactions designed to improve psychologically healthy growth.
