The advent of personal computers, as well as the widespread accessibility of the Internet, has created an environment which is conducive to utilizing technology in many different ways, specifically for presenting courses via computer (Harden, 2002.) The on-line delivery of courses (also called e-learning) has evolved from a unique format into one which is becoming widely used and more adaptable. Most universities now offer at least some classes via an online format. The purpose of this research study was to determine student perspectives of the online educational courses offered at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. The survey used in this study was designed to generate attitudinal information from students enrolled in online courses during the course of three semesters beginning in the Spring of 2003, and ending in the Spring of 2004 concerning their perceptions of the effectiveness of online courses offered via BlackBoard at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga.
