    Published Online:https://doi.org/10.1187/cbe-11-03-0031

    The authors of “Online Teaching Tool Simplifies Faculty Use of Multimedia and Improves Student Interest and Knowledge in Science” (CBE Life Sci. Educ. [2011] 10, 298–308) wish to make the following correction to Table 1. Footnote a was incorrect. The correct footnote is Four-point Likert scale: very unlikely (1), unlikely (2), likely (3), very likely (4), where 2.5 would represent the middle.

    Naïve faculty (n = 5)Faculty users from Table 2 (n = 5)
    Using the OMTT on their own time will foster my students' interest in science3.03.6
    Students will find using the OMTT on their own time to be more trouble than it is worth1.81.6
    Using the OMTT on their own time will make it easier for my students to grasp scientific concepts3.43.6
    My use of the OMTT should help students see how what we cover in class connects to real scientific research2.83.2
    If I were to use the OMTT, students would want to use the OMTT outside of class3.04
    Based on what I've seen so far of the OMTT, I would use the OMTT during class lecture3.44
    Based on what I've seen so far, I would encourage my students to use the OMTT on their own time3.64
    Based on what I've seen so far, I would recommend the OMTT to colleagues3.64
    Based on what I've seen so far, I would like to see more OMTT modules developed3.44
    I found the OMTT easy to use in my lectures3.8
    I found the OMTT complemented my existing curriculum in neuroscience
