Abstract

ABSTRACT This brief is rooted in the purpose and findings of a qualitative study that explored the experiences and perspectives of African-American/Black community college students in asynchronous online learning environments. A growing number of African-American/Black students are enrolling in California community colleges and online courses. However, African-American/Black students have disproportionately poor academic outcomes in online community college courses, and little is known regarding their online learning experiences. Key recommendations in this brief center on the importance of promoting and investing in online student services, providing opportunities for online student communities, and investing in ongoing online faculty training.
