Internet Learning
Course C
Students reported that the course met only a few essential standards 1.2, 2.1, 2.2, 2.4,
3.2, 4.1, and 5.2. However, the review results conducted by the three certified peer reviewers
(none of the peer reviewers served as an SME on this review) indicated that only three of
the essential standards were not met, standards 2.2, 7.2 and 8.1. The peer reviewers’ results
for standards 7.2 and 8.1 are in conformity with the students’ results that the course does
not meet these standards.
