学习者在在线课程中互动的有益影响已被广泛报道。事实上,在线讨论被认为是为了促进以学生为中心的学习。因此,建议在线讨论的好处应该转化为学生表现的改善是合理的。目前的研究调查了122名本科生的在线互动频率,并将其与年底的成绩进行了比较。研究结果显示,更多的在线互动并不会显著提高学生的及格成绩;然而,课程不及格的学生互动的频率往往较低。本文还讨论了在线交互中可能显著的其他因素。
The beneficial effects of learners interacting in online programmes have been widely reported. Indeed, online discussion is argued to promote student-centred learning. It is therefore reasonable to suggest that the benefits of online discussion should translate into improved student performance. The current study examined the frequency of online interaction of 122 undergraduates and compared this with their grades at the end of the year. The findings revealed that greater online interaction did not lead to significantly higher performance for students achieving passing grades; however, students who failed in their courses tended to interact less frequently. Other factors that may be salient in online interactions are discussed.
