A National Study of Online Learning Leaders in U.S. Community Colleges
Fredericksen, Eric E.
Online Learning, v22 n4 p383-405 Dec 2018
Online learning has become a major endeavor in U.S. higher education. A 2016 national study of leadership for online learning explored a new leadership role that presidents and provosts at U.S. universities have established to coordinate and direct their efforts in this vital area. A significant portion of online education is offered by two-year schools, however. This systematic national study of online learning leaders at our community colleges, which reached out to 752 individuals and received 226 responses, will complement the first study and contribute to our understanding of this vital academic initiative in those institutions.
