Abstract

As distance-based education continues to diversify its method of delivery, online educators are also looking for various ways to involve students in research projects and develop research cultures sustainable in a virtual environment. The presenters of this workshop are researchers and administrators in an online university and are constantly looking for different pathways to facilitate research engagement among students and faculty. Using the materials from their own research projects, examples from the activities conducted by an online based University Research Committee, and reflections from students, the presenters will address how various opportunities can be created to facilitate research-based activities and create a research-mindful culture in a distance-based institution. Participants will acquire a first-hand experience in exploring advantages and limitations of the online education medium.
