The CSIQ was designed following guidelines
recommended by Gall, Gall, and Borg
(2003) and by Schonlau, Fricker, and Elliot (2001) for Web-based questionnaires. The
questionnaire consisted of an initial question to
verify that the respondent met the inclusion
criteria (i.e., sometime in the last 5 years, he or
she had taught an online course as defined in
the study) and four main parts: demographics,
general questions related to the instructor’s
most recently taught online course, Web version
of the RAIQ, and optimal class-size questions
and comments
