dc.description.abstract The purpose of this study was to describe the effects of an orientation tutorial and teacher facilitation of e-learning strategies on learners' practices and attitudes while engaged in elearning credit recovery courses. Specifically, the participants in the study were students in Performance Learning Center (PLC) classes participating in NovaNET coursework. The intervention consisted of a multimedia orientation tutorial supported by teacher facilitation. The results of the study indicated some students in the intervention increased the time spent per lesson, possibly because of increased note-taking, a strategy taught in the tutorial. Other results did not indicate a significant effect on e-learning strategies as a result of the intervention. These results could be explained by the fact that all participants in the study had previously engaged in NovaNET coursework and had already developed many of the strategies necessary for success in their e-learning endeavors. en_US
