Stability of Constructs in the Community of Inquiry Survey Over Time

• In Event: DDL- Community Connections in Online Learning (h)

Short Description

The purpose of this study is to examine the stability of Community of Inquiry (CoI) constructs over time. Three growth-curve models were used to analyze the CoI scores from 402 students enrolled in an online Master’s program. CP and TP showed a non-statistically significant growth variation showing that both CP and TP scores are reasonably stable constructs over time. SP showed statistically significant and positive growth. Conceptual explanations will be provided.
