A Comparison of Learner Self-regulation in Online and Face-to-face Problem-based Learning Courses

Thu, Nov 6, 2:15 to 3:15pm, 3rd Level, River Terrace 1

Short Description

A posttest-only, quasi-experimental study was conducted to investigate the effect of two problem-based learning environments on students’ self-regulation of learning and students’ level of cognitive load. The study involved 40 graduate nursing students from two nursing courses where problem-based learning was the principal method of instruction. Twenty students from an online course and 20 students from a face-to-face course received one ill-structured problem weekly in their respective courses over the 4-week duration of this study.
