Students’ Perceptions on the Various Delivery Methods of Instruction
Abstract: The purpose of this project was to examine students’ perceptions of the various methods of delivery in order to provide feedback and recommendations for faculty members to help ensure quality instruction and student learning occurs. A modified survey modeled after Shantakumari and Sajith’s (2015) work solicited data about learning process, learning content, ease of use, and demographic information. Respondents were asked to rank their preference among the three delivery methods of face-to-face, hybrid, and online courses. A factor analysis was conducted and the findings revealed that students had a preference for the learning experience, favoring both face-to-face and hybrid course delivery over online delivery, yet no significant preference in delivery method for their self-efficacy or the method’s ease of use.
