Comparative and Non-Comparative study
ComparativeNon-Comparative
Comparative Analysis of
Learner Satisfaction and
Learning Outcomes in Online
and Face to Face Learning
Environment.
Type of comparative
study: learner's perception
and performance
Virtual interactivity: design
factors affecting student
satisfaction and perceived
learning in asynchronous online
courses
Title of Studies
ComparativeNon-Comparative
Compare an online
course with an
equivalent course
taught in a traditional
face-to face format.
It investigates factors affecting
student satisfaction with and
perceived learning from
asynchronous online learning
Purpose of Studies
ComparativeNon-Comparativ
e
What differences exist between students enrolled in online versus face-to-face learning environments in: satisfaction with the learning experience?
student perceptions of student/instructor interaction, course structure, and course support ?
learning outcomes (i.e., perceived content knowledge, quality of course projects, and final course grades)?
Questions of Studies
ComparativeNon-Comparative
19 students: were taught on the campus of a large Midwestern university through a traditional face-to-face format
19 students: were offered totally online, with no direct face-to-face contact between the instructor and the students.
3,800 students who were enrolled in 264 courses but About (1,406) students returned the survey.
About 73 courses and eleven hundred and eight (1,108) students were enrolled in the courses whose design features we examined.
Participants of Studies
ComparativeNon-Comparative
some items from (ICES) instrument
CISS instrument
Students projects
Final course Grade
A self-assessment instrument
Student Survey Data
Course Design Data: twenty-two variables using Likert-type scaling
instruments of Studies
ComparativeNon-Comparative
Student Satisfaction: on instructor quality and course quality, both groups provided positive ratings .
Perception of course interaction, structure and support: Overall, both groups of students had positive perceptions. with the face-to-face students having significantly more positive views for interaction and support.
It shows high levels of satisfaction with and perceived learning from SLN courses
indicate that most students believed their level of interaction with the course materials, with their instructor, and with their peers was as high or higher than in traditional face-to-face courses.
Results of Studies
ComparativeNon-Comparative
Student Learning Outcomes:
Blind review of course projects: The difference in the project ratings for the two groups was not significant
Course grade: The grades were, for the most part, equally distributed between both groups
Self- assessment: Significant differences were found on only five of the 29 items on the self-
assessment instrument
Three factors that contributing significantly to the success of online courses.
1. a clear and consistent course structure,
2. an instructor
3. a valued and dynamic discussion.
Results of Studies
ComparativeNon-Comparative
Equivalence of the groups in number, same
instructor and course, delivered by the same
department, and required the same content,
activities, and projects
All data were collected at or near the end of
the semester
Researcher used more than one instrument,
so this makes research more reliable and
creditable.
Used more than one instrument for collecting data.
Gives some information about why the finding is that.
Advantages of Studies
ComparativeNon-Comparative
To ensure instrument validity, Researcher
used many ways. The researcher contacted with authors of
the (DOLES) and (DDE) instruments to obtain copies and necessary permission to use their instruments.
content experts reviewed the items of instrument (CISS) .
the instrument was pilot tested in an undergraduate engineering course (43 students) and two graduate education courses (25 students).
Used more than one instrument for collecting data.
Gives some information about why the finding is that.
Advantages of Studies
ComparativeNon-Comparative
The composition of the students
and the small sample size makes
it difficult to interpret the result.
The CISS instrument is still in its
early developmental stage and
has not completed a full analysis
to ensure reliability and full
construct validity.
No clear information about participants
