Abstract

This study aims to examine expectations, and readiness and satisfaction levels of on-campus engineering students for a blended Calculus course, and to draw implications for course improvement, through quantitative measurement tools on the basis of gender, department, and prior exposure to online learning. Designed as a correlational survey, the study was conducted at Muğla Sıtkı Koçman University with freshman students enrolled in computer and civil engineering departments. Total 102 students responded to expectancy and readiness survey administered at the beginning of the semester whilst 95 responded to the satisfaction survey at the end of the semester. Findings indicate no significant difference statistically for expectation, readiness and satisfaction levels of the participants as of gender, department and prior exposure to online learning. It is expected that findings from such studies will help to improve the design, development and implementation of online courses and programmes in Turkey.
