A Study of the Use of Online Supported Learning Facilities at Charles Sturt University

摘要

This paper reports on a study of student use of various online learning facilities using comprehensive log data that was collected within Charles Sturt University. Analysis of the data verified that many students were silent users of the system as well as revealing some surprising results regarding features that were not used at all and preferred patterns of access. These results have implications for the design of online learning facilities for other distance education ventures.
