Abstract

The Classroom Community Scale (CCS) has been utilized in previous research to measure sense of community of learners including those learners in blended learning environments. In the current study, the CCS was examined with respect to its psychometric properties in the blended learning environment. Reliability analyses indicate an acceptable level of internal consistency of scores for the data obtained. Confirmatory factor analyses, however, do not indicate evidence to support the construct validity of the CCS as previously defined.
