论文摘要
专业发展或其他类型的工作场所培训的面对面指导提供了社交环境和即时反馈机制，通常可以确保所有参与者都成功。在线，自定进度的教学缺乏这些机制，并且依赖于每个学习者的动机和持久性，通常会导致完成率较低。在这项研究中，我们研究了将启用工具和实时反馈引入在线学习经验的效果，课程中的学习者表现，课程的持久性以及选举以完成补充阅读和作业。我们实验的发现显示了正相关，实时相互作用与所研究的所有绩效指标之间具有强大的统计意义。 由国家科学基金会资助的研究，奖励编号1843391。
In-person instruction for professional development or other types of workplace training provides a social environment and immediate feedback mechanisms that typically ensure all participants are successful. Online, self-paced instruction lacks these mechanisms and relies on the motivation and persistence of each individual learner, often resulting in low completion rates. In this study, we studied the effect of introducing enabling tools and live feedback into an online learning experience on learner performance in the course, persistence in the course, and election to complete supplemental readings and assignments. The findings from our experiments show positive correlations with strong statistical significance between live interactions and all performance measures studied.
