Some of the questions addressed in the study are:

  • Can online courses achieve learning outcomes that are equivalent to in-person courses?

  • What are the most important quality indicators of an online education?

  • How does the quality of online courses compare with the quality of in-person courses?

  • To what extent have faculty members and technology administrators experienced online learning themselves, as students?

  • To what extent have faculty taught online, hybrid, and face-to-face courses? For those who have not taught online, why is that?

  • How supportive are institutions of online learning?

  • Which should cost the student more -- online degree programs or those delivered face to face?

  • Who should be responsible for creating and marketing online degree programs?

  • Are institutions expanding online learning? Should they do so? To what extent do faculty feel that they are appropriately consulted in this decision-making process?

  • How do faculty use learning management systems (LMS) and early warning systems?
