Title

Overcoming Barriers to Successful Delivery of Distance-Learning Courses

Abstract

For this study, the authors collected data from 81 business professors who taught distance-learning courses at 61 U.S. business schools accredited by the American Assembly of Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB). Findings indicate that the professors (a) primarily used self-training for the design and delivery of on-line courses, (b) believed that the technology was not sufficiently reliable, (c) believed that the greatest benefit of distance learning was flexibility for students, and (d) perceived a student-centered teaching approach as necessary for successful distance-education courses.
