Often the course design process involves an instructional designer who works with a faculty member, helping to ensure that the final product is appropriate for distance education. The ability to identify faculty concerns about distance education can impact the course development process. The difference between instructional designers' perceptions of faculty concerns--and faculty members' expressed concerns--has implications for distance education designers. This study explored how congruent instructional designers' perceptions of faculty concerns about distance education were with the faculty members' reported concerns. Additionally, it examined if the instructional designers' ability to perceive faculty concerns was related to faculty members' satisfaction with designers' effectiveness. |
