Can people in an online learning environment perform as well or better than those on classroom education?

 

The U.S. Department of Education has recently published an Evaluation of Evidence-Based Practices in Online Learning. This evaluated a thousand empirical studies from 1996 to 2008. The study entitled, A Meta-Analysis and Review of Online Learning Studies, revealed that, on average, students in online learning conditions performed better than those receiving face-to-face instruction.

To be in a position to do this, I have met with many educators, debated popular learning theories and discussed the ingredients that create a successful learning environment.  Similar to others who have started educational institutions and programs within the United States, I found my inspiration in the learning philosophy of John Dewey and the methods used by corporations throughout the world.  "I heard and I forgot. I saw and I remembered. I did and I understood." These words of John Dewey reflect how all of us are taught once we leave the confines of grade school and most universities.  Throughout the work place, new information is communicated in an active learning manner. On the job training requires hands on learning to impart the information rapidly in a manner in which it will be understood and applied correctly.

Using active learning techniques as the primary method to learning, Nawa Academy has found that not only students bound for top universities and colleges absorb more information and know how to apply it, but so do students who are learning English as a second language and those who have had the misfortune to experience and inferior education.   Active learning techniques create understanding, which in turn leads to knowledge.

I endorse and encourage your participation in Nurses’ E-Learning Center.  Its interactive format is built on active learning techniques that will help you in two ways: first, you will learn the presented curriculum in a manner that will greatly enhance your understanding, thus enabling you to improve your testing results on standardized nursing exams such as the NCLEX.  The second is that you will be armed with a comprehensive understanding of nursing which will enable you to compete more successfully for employment within the United States.

I encourage you to use the active learning approach used at Nurses’ E-Learning Center. The world needs well trained and compassionate nurses.  I hope you become one of them.

Sincerely,
David W. Hull, Rel.M.
