Leung, Y.-F. and M. I. Ivy. A study of students' perceptions. Course websites are increasingly used in college instruction, despite the fact that their effectiveness has seldom been evaluated. This study examined students' use and perception of utility of a course website provided in a required recreation and park planning course at North Carolina State University. A questionnaire survey was administered on forty senior students.
Results show that most students had good computer and Internet experience.
Many students used the website often, particularly on those components that are directly related to their final grades. Implications for instructors and future research are discussed.
