Abstract

This survey research of 55 participants was completed at a private university to determine students’ satisfaction of statistic online courses. The study explored the students’ satisfaction of course components: online statistics, online instruction, communication, assessment, and overall student satisfaction. The findings showed a positive satisfaction with overall means between 3.66 and 4.00 in a 5 point Likert-scale with a 5 meaning strong agreement with satisfaction of the course. The highest area of satisfaction was the category of assessment (M= 4.00) and the lowest area was the category of student overall satisfaction (M= 3.66). In addition, the study examined age, gender, teaching experience, and overall satisfaction of the course with the overall average of satisfaction.
