- W283554237 abstract "Abstract As demand for use of technology in education increases so too should attention scholarship of teaching within these technologically mediated environments. Interested in doing just that, a team of three professors worked together assess value of online research components in traditionally taught face-to-face classes. Fifty-six education students taking online classes responded a Likert style survey that included a space for comments. Reported in this article are not only generally positive results of study, but also, and in some ways more importantly, interesting analysis issues that research team dealt with in relation scholarship of teaching and survey research. Introduction Integrating technology into educational environments is rapidly shifting from a novelty employed by technologically savvy a requirement forced upon professors in higher education (GaPSC, 2001; NCATE, 2002; Simon Fraser University, 1998; Wright, 2000). As demand for use of technology in education increases so too should attention scholarship of teaching within these technologically mediated environments. Scholars of teaching have been characterized as faculty who frame and systematically investigate questions related student learning--the conditions under which it occurs, what it looks like, how deepen it, and so forth (Hutchings & Shulman, 2000, p. 48). There is hardly a more opportune time ask such questions than when both student and teacher experience change from face-to-face instruction teaching and learning in an online environment. Traditionally educational research has used surveys gather data on classroom practices (Mayer, 1999). However, Mayer (1999) questions validity of such data when he states, the teaching process consists of complex interactions between students and teachers that a survey may not be able do justice to (p. 33). Although it is recognized that adding open ended questions surveys can express feelings, ideas, or reactions without being limited preset categories (Thomas, 1999, p. 47), survey methods texts also emphasize complexity of analyzing responses open ended questions and amount of time involved by both researcher and subject as strong disadvantages there use (Fowler, 2002; Thomas, 1999). Yet it is contention of these authors that advantages listed by Fowler when he states that surveys permit researcher obtain answers that were unanticipated [and] may describe more closely real views of respondents (p. 91) far outweigh disadvantages when issue at hand relates quality of teaching and learning. In this article we demonstrate that in educational settings, and indeed we believe in all research on scholarship of teaching, pragmatic action research (Levin & Greenwood, 2001) that is paradigmatically qualitative and logically inductive (Denzin & Lincoln, 1994) is a highly effective approach understanding and improving practice. More specifically, we show value of incorporating a qualitative component into survey research, particularly when survey relates scholarship of teaching. We believe that such a mixed method design (Tashakori & Teddlie, 1998) has potential yield research results that might assist others in understanding more about online teaching and learning environment and, consequently, improve practice. The Study Framework As advocates of active learning (Race, 1998) and supporters of Boyer's suggestion make research a standard component of undergraduate coursework (Boyer Commission, 1998), we are always looking for an opportunity incorporate those activities into our classes. Such an opportunity presented itself one of us who was able move two required education classes a WEBCT-based online learning environment that allowed him opportunity not only incorporate, but also emphasize research-related web-based activities in classes that had been taught in a traditional face-to-face format. …" @default.
