Online Education Survey Student Survey

I am constantly talking to school administrators about online education. I would like to present to them what type of distance education programs the technologically astute students would like.

To do so, I have created a survey that I would like you to complete. The purpose of this survey is to help identify students' perceptions of online education programs and the types of distance education you would like to take.

Online education can be provided in a variety of formats. For the purpose of this survey, I have defined these formats as:

a. Broadcast Synchronous – Instructors broadcast live lessons. Students at remote locations can interact with the instructor.

b. Broadcast Asynchronous – Instructors broadcast live or recorded lessons. Students at remote locations do not have the ability to interact with the instructor during the broadcast.

c. Self-Paced – Content is presented in a slide format. After a set of slides, the student is required to respond to questions. The pace of the instruction is controlled by the student.

d. Discussion Group – Students are assigned to research a topic and present findings and ideas using discussion boards/blogs and emails.

e. Remote Independent Study – Off-campus students correspond with faculty members using email and a log.

f. Blended/Hybrid – Combination of traditional classroom setting and one of the above formats.

Thanks for your input. Please ask your friends to complete the survey.
