Produktbeschreibung
The purpose of this study was to determine the
effectiveness of online course delivery by comparing
students'' learning outcomes in a traditional setting
with students'' learning outcomes in an online
setting. The author also examined student attitudes
toward statistics as measured by the Survey of
Attitudes Toward Statistics (SATS). Three ARTIST
(Assessment Resources for Improving Statistical
Thinking) scales were used to measure student
performance. The fully online class used a learning
management system that provided streamed video
instruction, discussion, email, and feedback on
assignments. CD-ROM instruction was also used.
Results from all data analysis indicated there was
no significant difference in learning outcomes and
attitudes toward statistics between participants in
an online course and a traditional face-to-face
course. These results appear to indicate the use of
an online interface for these concepts in statistics
did not adversely affect content acquisition for the
targeted sample. Also, both groups tended to have
somewhat positive attitudes toward statistics after
only three weeks of instruction.
