INTRODUCTION•The purpose of our research was to determine whether

or not faculty members at Franklin Pierce College, Rindge Campus are currently using an online educational portal. If they are using educational portals what factors appealed to them about that portal. If they were not, then what factors would motivate faculty members to engage in distance learning.

•Research was also needed to determine what faculty member’s attitudes are toward the idea of a percentage of online classes being integrated into the educational system.
