The Validation of One Parental Involvement Measurement in Virtual Schooling. (2010, background): “Parental encouragement can also be an important force for elongated student participation and engagement in academic activities, which has been considered an important success factor for online learning (Cavanaugh, 2007; Dickson, 2005; O’ Dwyer et al., 2007; Wang & Newlin, 2000).”
Predictors of web-student performance: the role of self-efficacy and reasons for taking an on-line class (2002, background): “…able to form on-line learning communities supports earlier research suggesting that an inherent benefit of the virtual classroom is its ability to provide computer-mediated-communication (Boling & Robinson, 1999; Klein & Doran, 1999; Marjanovic, 1999; Pychyl & Abarbanel, 1999; Wang & Newlin, 2000).”
Student Ratings of Teaching : A Summary of Research and Literature (2012, unknown): “Furthermore, item means and the overall assessment of the instructor are nearly identical between students enrolled in multiple online and faceto-face sections of the same course taught by the same instructor (Wang & Newlin, 2000).”
Artificial Intelligence in Education: 20th International Conference, AIED 2019, Chicago, IL, USA, June 25-29, 2019, Proceedings, Part II (2019, unknown): “Studies like [27,28,30] suggested how different behavioral signals observed in LMS, such as frequency or length of interactions, can be significant predictors of student success in higher education courses.”
E-Learning in Organizations (2005, result): “Similarly, other researchers found lower final exam scores for students in the instructor’s Web-based Psychology Research Methods course compared with the classroom section (Wang & Newlin, 2000).”
Web-based teaching and learner control: a research review (2001, background): “In a recent empirical study of web-based classes, the quiz, homework, and midterm exam scores suggested that cyberstudents benefit from the study groups that are encouraged by means of student-moderated chatrooms and electronic fora (i.e. bulletin boards; Wang & Newlin, 2000).”
Pictorial Illustrations Still Improve Students' Learning from Text (2002, background): “An interesting, yetto-be addressed, empirical question is whether the “cyberstudents” ( Wang and Newlin, 2000 ) of the new millennium will differ from the book-learned “liberstudents” of the century past in their ability to process picture and text information comprehensively, and with comprehension”
