Through understanding students' beliefs and expectations of hybrid and online courses and face-to-face courses, we can recognize strategic planning that strengthens teaching pedagogy across the three course formats. In this study, students’ expectations and beliefs about various course formats were investigated. Self-report survey data showed a number of differences in the way students thought about their level of responsibility for learning and appropriate assignments across the formats. Similar to previous literature (Otter et al., 2013), students tend to see themselves as self-directed teachers in online courses It is also important that we understand how other variables (i.e., generational and gender differences) impact these expectations and beliefs. Data indicates that beliefs and expectations differ, especially among student classification and age.
