In this session, Dr. Irvine, professor of educational technology and co-director of the University of Victoria's Technology Integration and Evaluation (TIE) Research Lab, and Luke Richards, doctoral student at the University of Victoria, will present an overview of multi-access learning, which Dr. Irvine introduced in 2009.
In a recent study, a core teacher education course at UVic was offered in a multi-access format in the Fall of 2012. Seventeen remote students connected into a classroom via video where nine students and the instructor were face-to-face. The course is now completed and preliminary results will be discussed in this CIDER session. Student preferences for course access and their perceptions about the quality of learning experience will be reviewed as we examine implications for the brick-and-mortar university.
