53. “…students with lower levels of academic preparation
experienced significantly stronger negative coefficients for
online learning compared with their counterparts, in terms of
both course persistence and course grade…These patterns
also suggest that performance gaps between key
demographic groups already observed in face-to-face
classrooms (e.g., gaps between male and female
students, and gaps between White and ethnic minority
students) are exacerbated in online courses. This is troubling
from an equity perspective: If this pattern holds true across
other states and educational sectors, it would imply that the
continued expansion of online learning could
strengthen, rather than ameliorate, educational inequity.”
