Web-based Education on Bioterrorism and Weapons of Mass Destruction. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, March 2009, Pages: 148
This study examined the relationships between
measures of (a) learner satisfaction with
online courses on weapons of mass destruction (WMD)
and bioterrorism intended to address the
educational needs of responder Communities of
Practice (CoP) and (b) degrees of
accomplishment by the learner enrolled in those
online courses. Provided that course design
characteristics were similar between courses and that
content was different, it was important to
examine multiple measures of learner satisfaction
with the course characteristics (Content, Accuracy,
Navigation, Look, Flow, Assessment, and Value) in
relation to multiple measures of learner achievement
(Pre-Post Gain, Follow-up Personal Benefit, Follow-up
Organizational Benefit, Follow-up Subject-Matter
Retention, and Follow-up Simulation
Scenarios) in order to identify the predictors of
effectiveness for future design improvements. The
results indicated that (1) navigation appeared to be
a statistically significant predictor of learning
achievement scores and (2) estimate of
personal benefit was associated with value judgments
placed on the courses on bioterrorism and WMD for
responder communities.
