Research Tools for Quality Online Education: An Example of an Online Learner Readiness Instrument

Description

This session will focus on using research tools to collect data to support online learners. We will discuss our journey in re-developing an online learner readiness instrument at two universities. We will describe our collaborative research process and share the results of our validation study. Then we will discuss how the Learning Skills Journey Tool has been re-conceptualized to support undergraduate learners in self-assessment, connecting students with resources and support services, and helping student support coaches identify opportunities for students to develop learning skills. Finally, we will guide a discussion about searching for quality research-based instruments and using them in university settings.
