Educators and Researchers Behind eLearnReady

Who We Are

eLearnReady is led by a group of educators and researchers who are dedicated to assist learners in the online learning environment. Dr. Corey Lee and Dr. Natalie Abell initiated this project while offering online courses at the University of Findlay in 2003. Drs. Lee and Abell observed that many students choose to take online courses because of their availability and convenience, even though they are not experienced or prepared for online learning. Helping students understand the nature and expectations of online learning is critical for success. In a review of the literature relating to successful learning online, Drs. Lee and Abell identified multiple essential attributes for online learning. As a result, they developed a diagnostic an intervention system based on them, which serves as eLearnReady’s backbone.

Thousands of students and teachers can’t be wrong!
