Evaluation of Evidence-Based Practices in Online Learning A Meta-Analysis and Review of Online Learning Studies

U.S. Department of Education2009

“On average, students in online learning conditions performed better than those receiving face-to-face instruction.”

“Every course is different and the success or failure of any class depends on too many variables for me to ascribe it to any single medium. As a result, I find myself in a constant state of critical reflection on my teaching methods and, for that reason, I prefer to have more tools at my disposal, rather than fewer.

We must move away from a dichotomous view of teaching as online or face to face, and toward the idea that all courses can potentially involve both methods.”

Blended Learning is: An optimized pedagogical approach that is:

Aligned with our school’s mission and values More interpersonally engaging for all More collaboratively oriented Enhancing the learning experience Increasing the flexibility and convenience for all Increasing overall student satisfaction Meeting our programmatic objectives Enabled by Internet technologies

04/12/23 Presentation 1 13

Blended Learning is: NOT just a technology enhancement NOT simply a traditional class with a website NOT entirely online NOT impersonal NOT about the technology NOT all alike NOT less work for you... at least not the first time.
