WIP: Faculty Adoption of Active Learning in Online Environments: An Application of the Concerns-Based Adoption Model

Abstract 
In the last two years, faculty who used active learning faced many challenges in adopting their preferred techniques and materials to the online context with very limited preparation. This study explores instructor experiences and strategies to implement active learning in their online classes by applying the Concerns-Based Adoption Model (CBAM) which has helped researchers understand and monitor developmental processes for individual instructors adopting changes in educational institutions. Thirty-two STEM instructors participated in eight focus-group interviews about barriers to their implementation of active learning in an online context. Through a two-cycle coding analysis based on “Levels of Use”, a diagnostic dimension of the CBAM framework, we demonstrate that most of the instructors were struggling with the initial steps of logistical implementation and acquisition of new skills. We further determined three types of logistic issues: 1) having issues beyond instructors’ control in online environments, 2) struggling with classroom management and organization, and 3) lacking necessary technical skills. In addition, we identified instructors’ advanced skills related to implementing active learning in online classes. This research provides a deeper understanding of STEM instructors’ experiences with respect to adopting active learning in online environments. Our results imply that STEM instructors should be flexible and creative, meanwhile, institutions need to provide on-demand support that is tailored to the Level of Use instructors have mastered when it comes to pedagogical knowledge of online delivery.
