TENNESSEE ONLINE INSTRUCTION SCALE

2001 by F. A. Randall & G. C. Petty

The purpose of this inventory is to obtain information about your beliefs regarding your ability to participate in an online course. Your responses will be kept strictly confidential and your name is not required on this form. This inventory should take less than 10 minutes to complete.

For this inventory, an online course is defined as structured learning experience delivered to a remote audience completely through the use of computers and the Internet. In online instruction, all course activities and interactions with the instructor and other course participants are accomplished without face-to-face contact.

When completing this inventory do not consider your opinion of online instruction, your motivation to participate in online instruction, or your plans to ever participate in online instruction. Focus on your belief in your ability to do each task as if you were actually participating in an online course.

DIRECTIONS:
For each online instruction task listed below, please CLICK THE RADIO BUTTON that most accurately reflects your belief in your ability to do each task if you were participating in an online course. There are seven possible choices for each item:
Never (1), Almost Never(2), Seldom(3), Sometimes (4), Usually (5), Almost Always (6) and Always (7).

THERE ARE NO RIGHT OR WRONG ANSWERS. There also is no time limit, but you should work as rapidly as possible. Please answer truthfully and completely as possible for each item in the inventory.
