Books by Dr. Fairy C. Hayes-Scott

Community College English Composition Online Students: Keeping Them Plugged In

 

In this book, Dr. Hayes-Scott addresses a major crisis in online education, especially college

English composition courses—attrition. Students who determine that this is not the best

way to learn, probably take an on-campus course. This book, however, focuses on

retaining students who take online courses. 

 

This book suggests testing instruments that may help in advising students to or not to take

an online English course. Furthermore, Dr. Hayes-Scott shares what is in the research

regarding techniques that can be implemented in online courses that may be successful in

keeping the attrition rate low. Dr. Hayes-Scott implemented some of these techniques

and reports her experiences. So, this work is not just a theoretical discourse; it is an

empirical response to the theory.
