Blended Learning Implementation Among Mathematics Students: A Comparison to Traditional Learning Platform
Abstract
Technology enables innovation in teaching and learning. Extant educational research has been focused on comparison between learning platforms, namely traditional and blended learning environments. The purpose of this study examined the differences between students’ performance in a Blended and traditional college course and it compared the performance of diverse students’ population enrolled in the Precalculus courses in an urban campus setting. The research questions of this study are (a) is there a difference in the student performance as measured by final course grade in Precalculus between students attended the blended or the traditional course?, (b) is there any difference in the performance as measured by final course grade in Precalculus between Male and Female students in either blended or traditional course?, (c) is there any difference in the student performance in either blended or traditional course as measured by final course grade in Precalculus based on race. This study deployed quantitative research design using a convenience sampling technique. A significant difference occurred in the student performance in Precalculus between blended and traditional learning courses. Also, a significant difference occurred in the performance in Precalculus between Male and Female students in either blended or traditional course. According to race, blended learning had positive effect on student performance. This study contributes as an addition to previous research as the focus on Precalculus course at Texas A&M that has never been studied, which may encourage faculties to build an effective blended learning strategy to improve student performance among its diverse student population.
