- Title
STUDENT-INITIATED CONTACT WITH PROFESSORS: A COMPARISON OF FACE-TO-FACE, HYBRID, AND ONLINE STUDENTS.

Lovern, J. Jeannette; Lovern, Sarah B.
- Abstract
The researchers compared the student-initiated interactions with the professor across three course-delivery methods for a single course throughout a full semester, looking at the modality of those interactions, the amount of time required by the professor for engagement (or response to) for the interactions, and the purpose of the interactions. The researchers found that the students in the hybrid and online course-delivery methods initiated more interactions and required more of the professor's time than did the face-to-face students. Email was the modality used most by the students. Content clarification and tech issues were the most common purposes for the interactions.
