Jean Sawyer & Rita L. Bailey, Speech Pathology & Audiology
On-line courses offer students the flexibility of being able to work through the course at their own pace and give them opportunities for individual and group participation. This presentation will describe the development of a hybrid on-line version of a graduate-level course in Speech Pathology and Audiology (PAS 444: Neuropathologies of Speech). This course was taught in Spring and Fall 2006 semesters, once by each of the presenters. At the beginning and end of each semester, students completed surveys regarding their perceptions of the course and suggestions for improvement. The feedback from the students from the Spring semester was used to implement changes in the course for the Fall semester. In this session we will present the results of the surveys, along with recommendations for enhancing the instruction and technological components of the course that were implemented in the subsequent offering of the course. This project was supported by a CTLT Teaching and Learning Development Grant.
