This research indicated that online learning was alive and well in Canadian post-secondary institutions, with 85% of responding institutions offering at least some online learning for credit in 2016, and with courses offered in almost all subject areas in one institution or another. Two-thirds of responding institutions stated that online learning was considered 'very' or 'extremely' important for their long-term future. The 2018 study builds on the prior year's results, with an expanded roster of institutions, a modified questionnaire with more detailed questions, and refined definitions and enrolment questions. The responding institutions covered 92% of all students in post-secondary education in Canada.20192019/01Canadian Digital Learning Research Association1-61Canadahttps://onlinelearningsurveycanada.ca/publications-2018/https://onlinelearningsurveycanada.ca/publications-2018/does not applybarriers to online learningblended learninghigher educationMOOCmultimedia usage in educationOEPOERonline learningopen textbooksshared definitionscanada_public_rapport__2018_frenchrev.pdfcanadian_survey_online_distance_public_report_2018.pdfinfographic-tess-fre-web.pdfinfographic-tess-eng-web (1).pdfhttps://onlinelearningsurveycanada.ca/publications-2018/https://formationenlignecanada.ca/publications-2018/Canada, North America
