{"product_id":"9781581120714","title":"Attitudes Toward Interactivity In A Graduate Distance Education Program","description":" Abstract: As distance education schools grow in popularity, contemporary educators are raising important instructional questions about quality of these programs. A vital question involves concerns about the level of interactivity or interaction between students and between teachers and students. Interactivity is a challenging subject because there are few research studies that address the issue. It is a dynamic entity that involves a number of important elements, but the researcher stressed three vital elements: communication, participation, and feedback.The study highlights research results from a survey of students who were pursuing on-line graduate degrees (masters and doctoral). Important distance education issues are discussed such as feedback from professors and the quality of academic dialog during a computer-mediated class. The text offers a relevant analysis of interactivity that should help distance educators and administrators in their quest to develop programs that meet the needs of today's adult learners  ","brand":"Universal-Publishers.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47040759300336,"sku":"9781581120714","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781581120714_p0.jpg?v=1763779677","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781581120714","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
