2016 AFC 105: Online Learning What the Students Are Saying
Channel: CTRLAmerican
Date: 2016-02-05

Although online courses are increasingly popular with students, are they effective? The goal of this session is to improve online teaching by asking students about their online learning experiences. The intended audience is anyone who teaches online or hybrid courses. A growing literature addresses issues from technology to student engagement. One way to improve teaching is to fully consider what students themselves are saying. This presentation looks at mid-semester and end-of-course student evaluations from The Catholic University of America and end-of-course evaluations from AU. This information is supplemented with interviews of students from both universities, seeking additional insights on online teaching and learning.
