Performance In Over The Wire Vs. Face to Face (STEM) Courses

Research output: Contribution to conferencePresentation

Abstract

More students are taking courses online than ever before.  In the case of one medium sized campus serving a mostly non-traditional college student population, approximately 90% of registrations are for distance learning courses.  Are these students getting a solid foundation in their early college years? Is there a difference in end of course scores, pass rates or grade distributions between students who take courses online and students who do not?  Researchers have examined hundreds of end of course scores in an attempt to answer these questions.
