WebCT User Survey Shows Significant Increase in Enterprise-Wide Implementations, Usage and User Satisfaction - TMC Net
Despite the relentless pressure on higher education to accomplish more with less funding, colleges and universities are intensifying their investment in e-learning, according to an independent survey of customers of WebCT, provider of the most flexible and widely used higher-ed e-learning solution. These institutions are relying on the use of e-learning to enhance education and compete for students. Thirty-seven percent of the survey's 416 respondents say they have implemented e-learning institution-wide, up from 25 percent in 2002. The institutions were likely driven to that decision by student demand for e-learning and high satisfaction rates. Student participation in e-learning is growing at a 31 percent clip, and faculty members are catching up to the demand with a 44 percent aggregate growth rate in e-learning participation, according to the survey. The survey results indicate e-learning is no longer a peripheral part of education at colleges and universities around the world.
