Engaging Online Learners: The Impact of Web-Based Learning Technology on College Student Engagement
Chen, Pu-Shih Daniel; Lambert, Amber D.; Guidry, Kevin R.
Computers & Education, v54 n4 p1222-1232 May 2010
Widespread use of the Web and other Internet technologies in postsecondary education has exploded in the last 15 years. Using a set of items developed by the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE), the researchers utilized the hierarchical linear model (HLM) and multiple regressions to investigate the impact of Web-based learning technology on student engagement and self-reported learning outcomes in face-to-face and online learning environments. The results show a general positive relationship between the use the learning technology and student engagement and learning outcomes. We also discuss the possible impact on minority and part-time students as they are more likely to enroll in online courses. (Contains 11 tables.)
