Abstract

Distance learning is a personal, unique experience that can be rewarding for the student who is able to make the leap from the managed setting of a traditional classroom to a self-directed environment. For students who are not accustomed to the discipline that a self-directed learning environment requires, the online collaborative setting can lead to frustration, disappointment, and failure. Students of online learning programs face unique challenges that can be resolved by taking a student-led approach to the learning experience. This paper will discuss planned research to be conducted that considers what personality characteristics are needed to help students be increasingly successful in online academic environments. In particular, it considers if leadership characteristics are an added element that will help students increase their success rates when participating in online courses and whether these characteristics differ from those needed for similar courses in onground academic environments
