43. Faculty & Student Feedback Who’s taking TOW? Who are they teaching?

44. Faculty Testimonials “I think my perception of teaching/completing online courses has completely changed! I really enjoyed learning about the content and connecting with other professionals who are teaching online courses!” -Sports Psychology Instructor (Graduate School)

45. Faculty Testimonials “Participating in the TOW helped me recognize what quality online learning looks like and changed my perception of online courses for the better.” -Assistant Professor (Department of Psychology)

46. Faculty Testimonials “This was my first experience in taking an online class and I had many reservations that I realize now were misconceptions. I did not feel the “loss” of community that I originally anticipated. I feel as if I learned (and will hopefully retain) an incredible amount of information in a short amount of time.” -Field Instructor Trainer (Social Work)

47. Faculty Testimonials “Being a student in an online class was a practical way to experience what our students will encounter and it was a helpful first look for me, since I have never taken an online class before.” -Gender & Health Instructor (International Studies)

48. 2014 Student Survey 83% Requirements for my interaction with the instructor, content, and other students were clearly explained.

49. 2014 Student Survey 78% The course and learning activities provided multiple opportunities to interact with fellow students.

50. 2014 Student Survey 87% The course learning objectives describe outcomes that I was able to achieve.

51. 2014 Student Survey 84% It was clear how the assignments and activities were connected to the learning objectives of the course.

52. Research Project 2015 Student Survey Research Questions Does faculty participation in professional development activities impact the quality of their courses (as measured by selected QM standards)? Do undergraduate students in face-to-face courses rate quality standards and course satisfaction higher, lower, or the same as students in online courses?
