An Online Est Course Through Stakeholders’ Lenses In The University Of Tlemcen, Algeria
Authors : Meziani Somia .
Abstract
Investigating the perspectives of stakeholders in an online EST course was the subject of this study. Asynchronous interviews were designed and delivered using Google Forms and completed by three subject matter experts and administrators of the Tlemcen University, Faculty of Technology, an EST teacher participated also. The sample composed of PhD’s, Professors and Administrators with broad experience in teaching, research, publishing, industry and engineering faculty administration is deemed adequate for a qualitative study. Psychological factors and participation were deemed important factors to course success. The benefit from this technology can be achieved through technical expertise by incorporating diverse tools and resources. The challenges reported are mainly strength of connection and the necessity to adapt the courses to the current standards. Although favoring subject matter experts to deliver an EST course, a friendly collaborative atmosphere, already present, can help address the subjective course goals and include the learner in an inclusive Needs driven EST course.
