Randomized control trial of online learning among cadets at West Point
Findings:
Online instruction reduces a student’s final grade by 22 percent of a standard deviation.
The impact is larger for males, at 27 percent of a standard deviation, compared to 9 percent of a standard deviation for females.
Negative effects from online learning across the entire grade distribution but biggest impacts on the least academically prepared students.
"We also find that online students are less likely to report feeling connected and focused compared to in-person students."
The results are probably atypical because…”West Point students are among the nation’s most disciplined young people. If online learning has negative effects at West Point, what does that mean for the typical student?
