ABSTRACT
This Intelligence Brief from Higher Education Strategy Associates is based on a survey of Canadian students to determine their views on e-learning. Among many interesting findings, the brief reports that students in e-resource-intensive classes are overwhelmingly likely to say that courses that are conducted entirely without e-learning resources are superior to blended courses in terms of quality of instructors and quality of overall education.
