A Comparative Analysis of Program Curriculum in Selected Distance Education Information Systems Programs
A traditional indicator of quality in an educational program has been the curriculum offered in the program. One means for making a quality comparison between on-campus and distance learning programs would be to study the curriculum offered in a distance education program and compare it to a standardized, model curriculum. This study seeks to determine whether conformance of curriculum to a standardized model can be used as an indicator of program quality in distance education programs. By analyzing the curriculum in several Information Systems (IS) programs offered through Internet-based distance education, the current study attempts to determine whether conformance of curriculum to a standardized model, such as the MSIS 2000 Model Curriculum, can effectively be used as a determining indicator of program quality.
