本文提出了第一个实验证据的影响,现场与互联网媒体的教学。在一所主要研究型大学的一门大型微观经济学入门课程中,学生被随机分配到现场讲座,而不是在互联网环境中观看这些相同的讲座,其中所有其他因素(例如,补充材料)是一样的。我们发现适度的证据表明,现场教学占主导地位的互联网教学。这些结果对于西班牙裔学生,男生和成绩较低的学生来说尤其强劲。我们还为将来在其他环境中进行实验提供了建议。
This article presents the first experimental evidence on the effects of live versus Internet media of instruction. Students in a large introductory microeconomics course at a major research university were randomly assigned to live lectures versus watching these same lectures in an Internet setting where all other factors ((e.g., instruction, supplemental materials)) were the same. We find modest evidence that live-only instruction dominates Internet instruction. These results are particularly strong for Hispanic students, male students, and lower-achieving students. We also provide suggestions for future experimentation in other settings.
