摘要： Despite the rapid use of e-Learning in higher education, the beliefs of instructors about and their practices during online instruction have been seldom addressed. This study explores the role perceptions of e-instructors in higher education. In total, 106 instructors from 20 Taiwanese universities filled out a questionnaire. Analytical results indicate that “content expertise” and “instructional designer” are perceived by university faculty as the key components in e-instruction in higher education. A gap exists between ideal and practical roles of e-instructors in higher education. Role perceptions and role-based practices of e-instructors in higher education differ significantly in terms of gender and teaching experience. This study also provides suggestions for e-instructor training. 出版者： Athabasca: Athabasca University Press (AU Press) 出版日期： 2014-07-01 出處： International review of research in open and distance learning, 2014-07, Vol.15 (3), p.72-92 資源來源： ProQuest Canadian Business & Current Affairs Database (CBCA) 版權： Copyright (c), 2014ChiungsuiChang, Hun-YiShen, Eric Zhi-FengLiu 版權： Copyright International Review of Research in Open and Distance Learning Jul 2014 識別號： ISSN: 1492-3831 識別號： EISSN: 1492-3831 識別號： DOI: 10.19173/irrodl.v15i3.1654
