The article I read for the NSD assignment for next week is:
Warren and Holloman. (2005). Online Instruction: Are the Outcomes the Same? Journal of Instructional Psychology, 32(2), 148-151.
It talks about a course that was offered both online and f2f at the College of Education at East Carolina University. There were a total of 52 students, split equally between the online and f2f. 80% of the students were female and around the age of 33-34. Students were pre-assessed and post-assessed to determine if they learned anything. The authors determined that there was no significant difference between what the students learned in the online environment as compared to the f2f environment. This was measured by the assessments, grades, and end-of-semester evaluations. The group of people who were studied are teachers doing continuing teacher education courses.

This blog is about my PhD work at the University of Florida's College of Education. I am in the School of Teaching and Learning, concentrating in Educational Technology. My main focus is on personalized learning environments (PLEs) and their potential use in diverse disciplines. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions!
