Hearing Barbara Means speak

At Sloan-C in Orlando. Just got the chance to ask Dr. Means about the bias that face to face is of course superior to online. She answered with, "Why do we assume that what we have been doing is ideal?"

  1. Dr. Means did a great job today. She has some convincing evidence from her research about the improvement of outcomes in online classes. I see anecdotal evidence in student comments about this, but it is nice to see a stronger analysis.

  2. Can you share some details about Dr. Means and points from her presentation that you feel are relevant to what your institution is doing with distance education?
