Description (Abstract)
Students may study differently in online and face-to-face environments. With the increase of virtual education, understanding these differences can help develop more effective learning methods. Researching different measures to capture study strategies was the goal of this project. As part of an ongoing longitudinal research program to track changes in study strategies for students in online classes and in-person classes, we researched multiple measures. The study focuses on measures of student study techniques, time management, and resource utilization. By reviewing the construction and characteristics of existing questionnaires on study habits and learning strategies and presenting that information to a panel of experts (faculty and education doctoral students), these questionnaires were evaluated and compared to identify the most suitable instrument for the study. Once selected, the questionnaire underwent additional refinement through expert consultation to ensure its relevance and effectiveness. This future study will include human participants who will complete the selected questionnaires.
