Blended Learning and Learner Satisfaction: Keys to User Acceptance? - Larry R. Irons, Robert Keel, Cheryl L. Bielema

Abstract: User acceptance of blended learning instructional strategies is an important benchmark in ongoing efforts to develop distance learning programs. Student satisfaction is a key component in developing user acceptance. This paper reports on a study of blended learning in a state university in the Midwest. The particular blend of learning modalities reported here consists of 1) face-to-face instruction and 2) a learning management system (MyGateway) that provides asynchronous coordination and 3) a variety of group communication tools for students.
