Hi all,
Is anyone able to recommend any research or readings about the effects of e-learning or blended learning on student engagement and / or achievement?
Many thanks.
Yes, there are several rigorous pieces of research work from the Manaiakalani cluster and you can't go past the plethora of resources and research in Enabling e-Learning - NZ contexts and beyond, depending on what you're looking for. But be warned, with the last link, you might be scrolling for a while.....there's loads of gold in there
This one has some evidence about achievement:

Dorothy from Manaiakalani has several pieces of research. The latest is here - Blogging supports writing outcomes And there are suggestions here Raising achievement for Maori Boys.
