“…In addition, I maintained regular contact with Mr. Harding via email throughout the span of the course. As Meho (2006) notes, email correspondence is a viable method of continuing communication with research subjects when geographic boundaries become barriers to investigations. My email interactions with Mr. Harding often sought to clarify topics discussed in the initial interview or ask questions pertaining to specific instances found in the course.…”

This manuscript uses interview data collected during a qualitative study in 2007 of a secondary US history elearning course. The teacher, Mr. Harding, and 11 of the 13 students in the class were interviewed about their general perceptions of e-learning and the ability to effectively learn content online. The findings of the study show that nearly all participants maintained a belief that e-learning was best used for information transmission and rote memorization rather than active or social learning. Further, Mr. Harding seemed to characterize elearning students as uninterested in engaging in social interaction online, a perception that was refuted, at least partially, by his students. The manuscript concludes with a discussion of the findings and implications for secondary e-learning programs.Keywords: e-learning; secondary education; perceptions Abstract:Since the development of the first correspondence courses in the late nineteenth century,

“…A realização de entrevistas online (também chamadas einterviews) foi considerada um método válido para pesquisas qualitativas (Bampton & Cowton, 2002;Holge-Hazelton, 2002;Meho, 2006), todavia, demandou um procedimento especifico. O roteiro foi encaminhado aos entrevistados contendo informações referentes a pesquisa, como objetivo, tempo médio de duração, entre outras, e solicitando respostas com o máximo detalhamento.…”

“…We selected asynchronous, Web-based interviewing to allow participants time to respond, to reduce the burden on participants of scheduling a one-on-one telephone interview, and to provide an enhanced sense of confidentiality and anonymity. 11 An individual e-mail was sent directly to each participant from the host Web site, explaining the purpose of the study and steps for study completion. We sent a reminder e-mail approximately 10 days after the initial request to those who had not completed the survey and an additional request 10 days later.…”

Context:The decision has been made to move away from the traditional bachelor's degree professional program to a master's degree professional program. Little is known about the perceptions about this transition from those involved with education.Objective: To examine multiple stakeholders' perspectives within athletic training education on the effect that a change to graduate-level education could have on the profession and the educational and professional development of the athletic trainer.Design: Qualitative study. Setting: Web-based survey. Patients or Other Participants: A total of 18 athletic training students (6 men, 12 women; age ¼ 24 6 5 years), 17 athletic training faculty (6 men, 9 women, 2 unspecified; 7 program directors, 5 faculty members, 3 clinical coordinators, 2 unidentified; age ¼ 45 6 8 years), and 15 preceptors (7 men, 7 women, 1 unspecified; age ¼ 34 6 7 years) completed the study.Data Collection and Analysis: Participants completed a structured Web-based questionnaire. Each cohort responded to questions matching their roles within an athletic training program. Data were analyzed following a general inductive process. Member checks, multiple-analyst triangulation, and peer review established credibility.Results: Thirty-one (62%) participants supported the transition, 14 (28%) were opposed, and 5 (10%) were neutral or undecided. Advantages of and support for transitioning and disadvantages of and against transitioning emerged. The first higher-order theme, advantages, revealed 4 benefits: (1) alignment of athletic training with other health care professions, (2) advanced coursework and curriculum delivery, (3) improved student and professional retention, and (4) student maturity. The second higher-order theme, disadvantages, was defined by 3 factors: (1) limited time for autonomous practice, (2) financial concerns, and (3) lack of evidence for the transition.Conclusions: Athletic training students, faculty, and preceptors demonstrated moderate support for a transition to the graduate-level model. Factors supporting the move were comparable with those detailed in a recent document on professional education in athletic training presented to the National Athletic Trainers' Association Board of Directors. The concerns about and reasons against a move have been discussed by those in the profession.
