Student Satisfaction in Traditional, Online, and Hybrid Continuing Education Courses by Leah Flores Goerke Pdf

Instructors at a provider of military continuing education courses transitioned traditional classroom leadership courses to fully online and hybrid formats that combined online and face-to-face instruction. No evaluation of student satisfaction during the transition was conducted using research-based practices. The purpose of this mixed methods research study was to examine student satisfaction of traditional, hybrid and online delivery of two military continuing education courses using research-based practices. This empirical study was grounded in Malcolm S. Knowles, Elwood F. Holton III, and Richard A. Swanson's adult learning theory as well as Terry Anderson's and Gilly Salmon's online learning theories. Data from 96 course evaluations from students who completed traditional, online, and hybrid versions of two military continuing education courses were analyzed. Kruskal-Wallis analyses of variance tests were used to examine student satisfaction ratings for significant differences.--Provided by publisher.

Elements of Quality Online Education by John R. Bourne,Janet C. Moore Pdf

In the ten years since the inception of the Sloan Consortium, the field of online learning has entered the mainstream of higher education, making online learning a core ingredient of tomorrow¿s educational paradigms. Now that digital natives are coming of age, the blending of on-ground and online education is continuous and unstoppable. Growing demands for wide choice suggest that the blended agenda presses us rapidly into new realms of inquiry. Thus, the title of this collection, the fifth volume in the Sloan-C series on quality, is Elements of Quality Online Education: Into the Mainstream. The 14 peer-reviewed studies in this volume provide guidance for effectively responding to the challenges facing higher education.¿The studies on Student Satisfaction recognize that significant populations remain underserved. Yet asynchronous learning networks (ALNs) are widening access by easing some of the constraints of place-based, synchronous learning, so that many more and many more new kinds of learners can achieve satisfaction and success. ¿The studies on Learning Effectiveness share an emphasis on the ways that ALN exceeds the ¿no significant difference¿ minimum standard for learning outcomes.¿The studies on blending, combining face-to-face and online methods for learning, offer rich possibilities for what many see as the best of both learning modes.¿The studies on assessment go to the core of the Sloan-C quality framework and its emphasis on continuous quality improvement through demonstrating progress towards the overarching goal of affordable access for all in a wide range of disciplines.In our time of ¿profound, rapid, and discontinuous change,¿ these studies envision solutions to the challenges of online, blended and face-to-face education in higher education. Sponsored by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, the purpose of the Sloan Consortium (Sloan-C) is to help learning organizations continually improve quality, scale, and breadth according to their own distinctive missions, so that education will become a part of everyday life, accessible and affordable for anyone, anywhere, at any time, in a wide variety of disciplines.

Unlocking the Chain of Poverty by Elpidio R. Estioko Pdf

Unlocking the Chain of Poverty: In Pursuit of the American Dream, is a book of guts, survival, and the will to persevere against all odds. It chronicled a Filipino immigrant’s exploits in the US who reluctantly immigrated to the US with his wife and five of their six children at a time of declining global economy in the 1990’s. It actually captured how a family of seven with children ages 4 to 16 started a life in the US with very minimal assistance from immediate family members but friends and yet succeeded in realizing the American Dream... the hard way! It echoed Hillary Clinton’s book, “It Takes a Village: and Other Lessons Children Teach,” theme that applied to all kinds of successes and failures on the outcome of the child. The book, published in 1996, captured Hillary’s vision for the children of America focusing on the impact individuals and groups outside the family, have, for better or for worse, on a child’s well-being, and advocates of society meets all of a child’s needs. It also showcased how necessity played a vital role in their lives prompting them to work harder and chased every opportunity that came their way in order to make a living and bring food to the table. The book also exemplified how love and understanding evolved within the family that had to weather the effects of the ailing economy to be able to survive. All it needed to succeed, ultimately, was hard work, strong commitment, having a very supportive wife, strong belief in God, and the will to move on and pursue one’s goals.
