Abstract
Thousands of students enroll in online courses every year. Who are these students? What factors contribute to their academic success and persistence? What are the relationships between students' learning styles and success in the online environment? Results from a multiyear study of students taking online courses at the University of Central Florida provide answers to these questions and others to be posed and discussed in this timely session.
