Community-College Students Perform Worse Online Than Face to Face - 0 views

  •  
    By Ryan Brown in the Community Colleges section of The Chronicle of Higher Education, July 18 2011. The article reports on a recent CCRC study of 51,000 community college students in Washington State between 2004 and 2009. In 2010, CCRC released a similar study looking at online learning in the Virginia community college system.

Formerly Known as Students - 0 views

  •  
    By Alison Byerly in Inside Higher Ed, October 29 2012. Essay compares MOOCs to traditional education exchanges, looking at the role of "teachers" and "students" in each; also considering the difference in how "course "is defined in a MOOC vs. a traditional class. Byerly's point is that traditional experiences provide an agreement between teacher and student that the teacher's reach goes beyond the classroom (or screen) and that teachers model pedagogic behaviors, as well as providing academic advice, writing references, providing access to support, etc. This holds true whether a f2f lecture or online. The MOOC model is more like a broadcast, where such supports *can* be included but, as a rule, are not.
