Online Learning vs Face-to-face Learning December 23, 2010

In a comparative review of experiments contrasting face-to-face and online learning conditions released by the U.S. Department of Education last year, analysts examined 51 experiments conducted between 1996 and 2008. They found that students in online learning conditions performed better than those who received face-to-face instruction. Students who participated in blended learning conditions (using both online and face-to-face learning strategies) performed the best overall.
