How Nontraditional Bachelor of Science Degree Technology Students Perceive Distance Learning.

Thompson, Dale E.; Orr, Betsy; Thompson, Cecelia

Journal of Technology Studies, v27 n1 p17-21 Win-Spr 2001

A survey of 27 adult off-campus students in technical fields found that females, students over 55, and those who completed more classes were more positive about distance education. Student learning and instructional techniques received the lowest ratings. Students were not intimated by technology and valued being able to study at a distance. (Contains 21 references.) (SK)
