Assessing College Readiness For Online Education
The Summary Report for the 2000 @ONE Instructional Technology Survey is now complete and posted. Findings indicate that faculty continue to have positive attitudes regarding the potential for technology to improve instruction and that they are interested in learning how to use technology to reach instructional goals that benefit students - similar to findings in the 1998 survey. Faculty use of technology is increasing in a number of areas, especially in the use of the Internet and email. Skills are improving, but results still indicate a need for ongoing training in uses of technology that reflect best practices. Faculty most prefer live, hands-on training that includes development of a product such as an instructional Web site or instructional unit. Policy implications of the statewide @ONE Instructional Technology Survey 2000 include a number of issues with which campuses have been struggling. The changing workload of faculty, new roles necessary to support technology mediated instruction, and sufficient infrastructure all must be addressed before the California Community Colleges and their students will reap the benefits of technological advances.
