Faculty Satisfaction in Online Higher Education
The growth in online education has generated intense interest in questions about two main measures of e-learning success: learner satisfaction and learner outcomes. While the literature in these two areas has expanded considerably, not enough attention has been paid to faculty satisfaction, even though its critical impact on both areas has been established. This exploratory study surveyed 171 faculty from multiple institutions of higher education to learn about their experiences with online teaching, and examine how their satisfaction might be affected by training, flexibility in balancing work/life demands, institutional factors and technical factors.Author(s):
