Army National GuardThe American Journal of
Distance Education,

3. “The results”
 Although it appeared that students learned more
quickly in the distance learning format, in a course
of fixed length (three weeks), where there was
ample time for retraining and retesting, there was
ultimately equal effectiveness between groups.
This analysis supports many previous reports that
a distance learning group performed as well, if not
better than, a resident control group.

4. Significant Difference - Better Results with
Technology
 1993 - Souder, W. E.The Effectiveness of Traditional
versus Satellite Delivery in Three Management of
Technology Master's Degree ProgramsThe
American Journal of Distance Education”

5. “The results”
 Compared the results of a take-home essay exam for
students who participated in a live broadcast televised
graduate course in management of technology with
the results for students in the on-campus classroom.
The students participating in distance
learning performed better than students in the
conventional classroom ... With respect to
homework, the distance students performed at a
higher level.
