We Need to End the War Between Traditional and Online Instruction in Higher Education

We Need to End the War Between Traditional and Online Instruction in Higher Education | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
The percent of students who are taking online classes has exploded in recent years, and it shows no signs of abating. This is perhaps no surprise: online classes offer students a great degree of flexibility. But at the same time, the rise of online classes has led to something of a war between traditional and online instruction in higher education. If you peruse the admissions materials for most online programs, you will notice how careful most are to explain that their degree will not indicate that it was earned online, as if this were a source of shame. But it is time to end the war, for the benefit of all students.

Small classes. High standards. More money. These popular remedies for school ills aren't as effective as they're sometimes thought to be. That's the somewhat controversial conclusion of education researcher John Hattie.

Over his career, Hattie has scrutinized more than 1,000 "meta-analyses," looking at all types of interventions to improve learning. The studies he's examined cover a combined 250 million students around the world.
