The following questions are planned to be used for interviews with Computer Science department staff. The intention is to collect information from the department’s perspective on the benefits and challenges of running courses online vs. in-person. This will lead to several questions about running Computer Science courses in the hybrid online/in-person format.
Questions
- Can you describe the benefits of delivering a course online that are not present in in-person course delivery?
- Can you describe any benefits of delivering a course in person that are not present in online course delivery?
- Is there a format of course delivery that you prefer?
- In general, does the online method of course delivery introduce any challenges? Any additional costs?
- Based on your experience, do you imagine it would be feasible to deliver courses both online and in-person simultaneously? Why or why not?
- If it is not feasible to deliver every Computer Science course in the hybrid format, are there specific courses that would be feasible?
