We argue that a student-centered, theory-driven conceptualization and methodological approaches allow us to move beyond descriptive statistics and into a deeper understanding of MOOC learners. Examples using a teacher development MOOC are presented. }, number={4}, journal={Educational Researcher}, publisher={American Educational Research Association (AERA)}, author={Wiebe, Eric and Thompson, Isaac and Behrend, Tara}, year={2015}, month={May}, pages={252–254} }

The purpose of this study was to examine the factors that lead to technology adoption in a higher education setting. Specifically, we examined a range of predictors and outcomes relating to the acceptance of a cloud computing platform in rural and urban community colleges. Drawing from the Technology Acceptance Model 3 (TAM3) (Venkatesh, V. and Bala, H., 2008. Technology Acceptance Model 3 and a research agenda on interventions. Decision Sciences, 39 (2), 273–315), we build on the literature by examining both the actual usage and future intentions; further, we test the direct and indirect effects of a range of predictors on these outcomes. Approximately 750 community college students enrolled in basic computing skills courses participated in this study; findings demonstrated that background characteristics such as the student's ability to travel to campus had influenced the usefulness perceptions, while ease of use was largely determined by first-hand experiences with the platform, and instructor support. We offer recommendations for community college administrators and others who seek to incorporate cloud computing in higher education settings.}, number={2}, journal={Behaviour & Information Technology}, publisher={Informa UK Limited}, author={Behrend, Tara S. and Wiebe, Eric N. and London, Jennifer E. and Johnson, Emily C.}, year={2011}, month={Mar}, pages={231–240} }

However, prior research has not provided a thorough examination of crowdsourced data for organizational psychology research. We found that, as compared with a traditional university participant pool, crowdsourcing respondents were older, were more ethnically diverse, and had more work experience. Additionally, the reliability of the data from the crowdsourcing sample was as good as or better than the corresponding university sample. Moreover, measurement invariance generally held across these groups. We conclude that the use of these labor portals is an efficient and appropriate alternative to a university participant pool, despite small differences in personality and socially desirable responding across the samples. The risks and advantages of crowdsourcing are outlined, and an overview of practical and ethical guidelines is provided.}, number={3}, journal={Behavior Research Methods}, publisher={Springer Science and Business Media LLC}, author={Behrend, Tara S. and Sharek, David J. and Meade, Adam W. and Wiebe, Eric N.}, year={2011}, month={Mar}, pages={800–813} }
