Description
INTRODUCTION Online education, as a subcategory of distance education, has established its status in recent years, thanks to the advance of Internet technology and development of the broadband network. According to Online Nation (Allen & Seaman, 2007), the annual report by the Sloan Consortium on online education in higher education in the United States, almost 20% of all U.S. higher education students were taking at least one online course in the fall of 2006, and 86% of those were undergraduate students. Specifically, for research universities, the compound annual growth rate (from 2002 to 2006) of students taking at least one online course was 22%. Furthermore, this report revealed that 67% of academic leaders of research universities believed that students' demand for online learning is growing.
