出版社:International Association for Computer Information Systems
摘要:This paper is an exploratory study that seeks to examine the effect of prior experience with the Internet on graduate students’ perception toward courseware usability and Web-based distance learning instructional design. A Likert-type instrument that measures subjects’ perception toward 1) courseware usability and 2) Web-based distance learning instructional design was designed and administered to 89 graduate students who were enrolled in a hybrid MBA program. Results from analyzed date indicated that prior experience with the Internet was a significant factor for both courseware usability and Web-based instructional design. The findings of this study are discussed and recommendations are made for future research.
