University Student Perceptions of the Use of the Web in Distance-Delivered Programs.
Kanuka, Heather
Canadian Journal of Higher Education, v31 n3 p49-71 2001
Investigated over two years Canadian students' needs when integrating the Web into distance-delivered degree programs, using Michael Moore's theory of transactional distance. Found that students considered the Web an effective technology to facilitate distance delivery; problems included working with instructors without expertise in the technologies, a lack of timely and informative feedback, and vague or confusing instructions.
