This study compared the implementation of a person-centered model of instruction to non person-centered instruction in Web-based courses. Three questions were posed regarding the outcomes of the person-centered model of instruction: Is it possible to increase the self actualization, or striving for individual achievement from learners in a Web-based course using a person-centered model of instruction? Could instructors in a Web-based course receive original and useful creative products from students experiencing person-centered learning that exceeded the quality of products in similar Web-based courses? Finally, would Web-based instructors see an increased striving for individual achievement within their students experiencing a person-centered learning experience? (Contains 4 tables.)
