Title: | An evaluation of a model multiple site distance learning program for non-traditional students | Authors: | Thompson, Dale E. Orr, Betsy Brooks, Kit Thompson, Cecelia |
Issue Date: | 2000 | Publisher: | Hong Kong : Vocational Training Council ; IVETA | Abstract: | The purpose of the evaluation was to determine student's perception of the effectiveness of a multiple site distance education program. Part 1 evaluated the distance education process. Students reported a positive experience with distance education. Many were apprehensive at first but after a class or 2, most began to like the process and preferred it to raditional classes. Part 2 evaluated program incentives & barriers, class structure and application of course content. Students responded that evening and weekend scheduling was the greatest incentive to participation in the program while lack of access to the advisor/instructor was the greatest barrier. | Description: | In: Vocational education and training for life long learning in the information era.
