Students' Perceptions of Online-Learning Quality Given Comfort, Motivation, Satisfaction, and Experience
Rodriguez, Michael C.; Ooms, Ann; MontaƱez, Marcel
Journal of Interactive Online Learning, v7 n2 p105-125 Sum 2008
Understanding factors in successful online course experiences can provide suggestions for instructors and students to promote improved learning experiences. A survey of 700 students regarding perceptions of online-learning quality was analyzed with a structural equation model. For students with online-learning experience, comfort with technology and motivation to learn technology skills were related to satisfaction with online courses, which was related to perceived quality. For students with hybrid-learning experience, comfort was related to motivation and perceived quality, motivation was related to satisfaction, and satisfaction was related to perceived quality. For students with no online-learning experiences, comfort was related to motivation to learn technology skills, but neither of these factors was related to perceived quality of online courses.
