This study aimed to investigate the effects of three different learning modes--online, blended, and face-to-face--on student course performance. Performance was measured by achievement (grades). This study compared student grades in classes taught using each of these delivery methods. This study was designed to serve as a foundation for evaluating…

The purpose of this quantitative, comparative study was to identify statistical differences that may have existed between adult basic education students in traditional and blended classrooms on the variables of perceptions of self-efficacy and academic performance. The seminal theories underpinning the research were andragogy, heutagogy, and the…

One schooling sector that had been growing before the pandemic, hybrid schools, in which students attend physical classes fewer than five days per week and are homeschooled on the other days, has seen recent continued growth. One factor that has not been explored is the commuting patterns families follow to use these schools. Whether families…

The main aim of this research is to study the influence of traditional, online, and hybrid teaching modes on student academic performance. For this purpose, three determinants of perceived satisfaction and academic performance are used to compare student learning outcomes across the different teaching mediums. This is the first study to examine…

The College of Technology at Wilmington University launched the Virtual Instructor Pilot Program (VIPP) in Fall 2022 to address the shortage of qualified adjunct instructors for on-campus courses following the COVID-19 pandemic. This study assessed the VIPP's effectiveness by analyzing student academic performance in on-campus courses with remote…

Blended synchronous learning provides students flexible attendance options for class sessions. This study explored the experiences and interactions of remote and on-campus students in the blended synchronous classroom using a protocol pedagogy framework and a 360-degree camera. This multimethod study included observations and video recordings of…

Technology enables innovation in teaching and learning. Extant educational research has been focused on comparison between learning platforms, namely traditional and blended learning environments. The purpose of this study examined the differences between students' performance in a Blended and traditional college course and it compared the…

The purpose of this study was to empirically investigate the effectiveness of the Blended Learning Choice Model on student academic performance. In response to the requirements necessitated by the COVID-19 pandemic, an adaptive blended learning method was developed. This model combined pedagogical needs with digital technology using online…

As a result of the development of the COVID-19 pandemic, a rapid transition from the classic classroom-lesson form to a distance form of education was required. Thus, many questions arose regarding the applicability of this training method and its comparison with the classical face-to-face method. This article presents a study of the examination…

Emotional experiences significantly affect students' health, learning outcomes, productivity, and social interactions. Therefore, investigating learners' emotional experiences in typical technology-related scenarios during the information age is crucial and meaningful. Utilizing assessment to bridge online and offline activities serves as a…

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, anatomy education was forced to adopt online modes of delivery. Previous research on student views revealed areas of strong preference (asynchronous lectures) and strong dislike (virtual specimens) in online anatomy courses. The current study seeks to compare the views of a single cohort of students…

McMillan and Chavis (1986) defined a psychological sense of community (PSC) as feelings of influence, membership, integration, and shared emotional connection. The importance of PSC to graduate student success has been established, but to date, no one has examined the extent to which PSC predicts student thriving when data is disaggregated by…

The aim of this study is to conduct a situational analysis of the benefits and drawbacks of returning to face-to-face courses in the Leveling Courses of the Universidad de las Fuerzas Armadas ESPE Sede Latacunga during the post-COVID-19 era. This will be done by comparing the virtual study mode in 2022 to the face-to-face mode in 2023. The results…

Contribution: This article contributes empirical insights on hybrid teaching of software engineering courses. Results include the systematic analysis of hybrid teaching attendance and interaction, perception of hybrid teaching, and grade distributions. Results are synthesized into eight evidence-based guidelines. Background: Hybrid teaching, i.e.,…

e-Learning was abruptly adopted in many countries to mitigate the adverse consequences of the sudden closure of institutions of higher learning caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Against this background, this study investigated how business undergraduates want to learn in the future and predictors of their future preferred mode of learning. 251…
