This research aims to discover students' views, attitudes and intentions in the early childhood education concerning web-based lectures. It examines whether students develop positive or negative attitudes, if they identify added value and how their intentions are shaped. It also detects difficulties and possible barriers that they encountered. At the same time, is examined whether their attitudes are correlated with the variables of the degree of familiarity with technology and the year of studies. The survey involved 277 students who attended part of their course through two web-based lectures. The survey used a researcher-made questionnaire for the detection of attitudes, while quantitative data was obtained which was also combined with qualitative ones. Results show that students develop a positive attitude and intentions about web-based lectures. They recognize and appreciate the added value of web-based teaching. Both the variables, degree of familiarity with technology and the year of studies appeared to determine the formation of their attitudes positively. However, this positive assessment was made in relation to the traditional face to face classroom lecture, and only in the perspective of its partial replacement.
There are many examples of activities that can be performed in a digital environment, and several variables may affect browsing patterns in the digital environment. This environment may be experienced as a separate environment to the physical one. Currently, the majority of people study in physical classrooms. Recently, however, it had also became possible to teach and study in "the digital classroom" (i.e., online learning environments) using computers and the Internet. This study examines the question of whether or not there are differences in the way these two types of classrooms are experienced. This study examined the relationships between attitudes toward classroom learning and attitudes toward digital classroom learning using self-report questionnaires that examined the attitudes of study participants. This study found that students prefer remote learning. In addition, the study found a negative relationship between attitudes toward classroom learning and attitudes toward digital classroom learning. This finding indicates that the two types of classrooms are not experienced as one environment, but rather, as two separate environments.

Perceptions of Preservice Teachers About Web Based Learning2008 •
This article presents the results of a survey study of secondary students\u27 perceptions of useful and challenging characteristics of Web-based learning environments. Data were collected using a modified version of a questionnaire from earlier studies. More specifically, the author focuses on what Web-based learning looks like for secondary students, along with their perceptions of the benefits, challenges, and helpful components of Web-based learning environments. As this study utilized similar instruments to earlier studies that looked at the perceptions of postsecondary students and corporate Web-based trainees, comparisons will be made between the secondary students in this study and the populations in those other studies

Preparing early childhood student teachers for web-enhanced distance learning: Student perceptions2007 •
Web-enhanced distance learning is a new mode of study for early childhood teachers, which has been trialled at New Zealand Tertiary College. This article reports on some aspects of a comprehensive pilot project studying the effectiveness of course delivery through web-enhanced distance learning. In this study student perceptions of the Learning Online orientation course are considered. Students commented on their computer skills, attitudes towards technology and the perceived advantages and disadvantages of web-enhanced distance learning. Flexibility, convenience and improved computer skills were noted as advantages of studying through a web-enhanced mode, whereas a lack of direct lecturer contact and time management were considered disadvantages of web-enhanced distance learning. This pilot study would indicate that from the Learning Online orientation course students gained the technical and study skills necessary for successful learning in an online environment.

Distance learning course Media in Education was carried out in the academic year 2012/2013 for full-time 61 students and 25 part-time students Polish Philology teaching specialties. Each student was required to put in the resources Power Point presentation and take one activity. It was treated as two hours of classes. Resources have been available to 17 students Library and Information Science, who were preparing to become teachers. Classes were held in a blended learning system, in addition to 10 hours of exercises for stationary cycle and 6 hours for part-time studies. Most undertaken were such activities as: forum, quiz, glossary of terms, rarely voting and chat. It turned out that the media competences are sufficient for students to participate in the e-course. Probably now some of them were able to conduct e-classes.

The Investigation of Attitude and Readiness of Information and Communication Technologies Pre-service Teachers Toward Web Based Learning2015 •
2016 •
It might be said that attitudes impact success directly in web-based teaching and timely and appropriate fulfillment of learners ’ expectations bear utmost significance for their success. From this perspective a properly designed web supported teaching application can provide positive contribution as well to learners ’ attitudes towards web supported teaching and internet. Based on this premise, the objective of present research is to explore the effects of different interaction types in web-based teaching setting on the attitudes of learners towards web-based teaching and internet. An experimental pattern with pretest-posttest control group was used in the study. Study group of research consists of 77 students. Research data have been compiled via Attitude towards Internet Scale (α=0,77) and Attitude towards Web-based Learning Scale (α=0,86). In one of the experimental groups, synchronous web-based training interaction and in the other group asynchronous web-based training interact...
