“The results”

It appeared that students learned more quickly in the distance learning, in a course of fixed length for three weeks, where there was much time to retraining and retesting students,There was  equal effectiveness between groups at the end . This analysis supports many reports that did before a period of time which distance learning group performed as well, if not better than, a resident control group.

“The results”

“Compared the results between online group and normal group in classroom. The online group typically achieved the highest GPA mean in each topic, and the highest cumulative GPA Average mean. The SD and Variance for this group indicate a consistent high quality learning of content. The online group is the most successful at cognitive learning as measured by the end of course examinations."
