| Abstract | Research on the community college student is lacking a full understanding on all the variables that may impact online course success. Researchers in this study examined the effects of student demographics, academic motivation, learning style, and locus of control on retention rates in community college online courses. A descriptive discriminant function analysis revealed one function that was primarily defined by age and ethnicity. Locus of control was not supported, but academic motivation and learning style preferences were retention predictors to a lesser degree. Online course completers tended to be slighter older, White, reported early course satisfaction, and had a sensing and sequential learning style preference. (As Provided). |
