Student Survey Results

In 2001 a committee from BSS, Academic Technologies and Continuing Education put together an online survey to be administered to the Chico distance education students encompassing questions regarding student demographics, technical capabilities, student services and perceptions concerning distance education. The questions were obtained from the nationally recognized distance education Flashlight project. The survey is administered each semester and results have been presented at numerous conferences.
