Abstract
The goal of this preliminary study was to examine the changing role of student and faculty participation in online curriculum development for both for-profit and traditional institutions of higher education. The authors have been concerned with the emerging trend of financial incentives driving the proliferation of online curriculum while circumventing the traditional curriculum development process. Secondarily, to investigate the strength of this contention, the authors queried through a brief survey how the preponderance of asynchronous online course development influences the role of the higher education faculty. Lastly, the researchers propose a beginning set of research variables that may be useful in discovering the casual relation between apparent dissatisfaction in online curriculum quality and student graduation performance with a movement toward synchronous and blended online instruction.
