Eom (management information systems, Southeast Missouri State U.) and Arbaugh (strategy and project management, U. of Wisconsin Oshkosh) present 17 articles that show researchers, instructors, managers, and graduate students in any field in the e-learning community how to do empirical research on e-learning practices, with a focus on student satisfaction and learning outcomes. A group of multi-disciplinary researchers from around the globe address a model of e-learning effectiveness; empirical research methods, including examples of several structural equation modeling techniques, higher order multivariate techniques, experimental designs, and data mining; factors influencing student satisfaction and learning outcomes, such as learner disposition and behavioral characteristics, quality assurance frameworks, course content design and development, synchronous course delivery, and corporate learning environments; and other applications of theory and methods, such as project-based learning and interactive blended courses.
