Comparing Outcomes between a Traditional F2F Course and a Blended ITV Course
Gerlich, R. Nicholas; Sollosy, Marc
Journal of Case Studies in Education, v1 Jan 2011
Two sections of the Principles of Management course were examined to compare student outcomes based on course delivery method. The first section was a traditional F2F class, while the second section was parallel cohorts of students meeting in two separate locations, but linked by ITV (Interactive Television). The professor appeared once per week in each location, effectively resulting in a hybrid synchronous ITV delivery in which students were only in the same room as their professor 50% of the time. Regression analysis, t-tests and correlations were performed on both total points earned and student scores on an assessment exam. Results showed there to be no significant difference in student outcomes between the two delivery methods.
