Beschreibung des Verlags

INTRODUCTION Online education (OE) is coming of age. Over the past few years, a stream of technological innovations, from video streaming to virtual online classrooms, has allowed educational institutions and their faculty members the opportunity to experiment with new teaching methods and to offer new types of degree programs beyond the traditional classroom setting. As a result, students are able to enhance their knowledge and to earn degrees without leaving their jobs and families, and in some cases, without setting foot on a college campus. Today's OE programs can allow students to attain their educational goals in a manner that is flexible, convenient and cost effective (Furst-Bowe & Dittmann, 2001; Anderson, Banks & Leary, 2002). The question is, how do they perceive this opportunity? That is, do students perceive online programs as comparable to on-campus work, or do they perceive such offerings as higher risk alternatives?
