Outcomes in a blended course in business and economic statistics are assessed within the context of students' previous experience with online and blended courses. Experience with class formats that rely heavily upon online materials may translate into improved outcomes in subsequent blended courses. We explore whether any significant gains accrue to students due to previous experience. When outcomes were analyzed using the full sample of students, no effects on outcomes from having previous experience versus having none were found. However, when the transfer status of students and ranges of grade point averages were considered, it was found that online and blended experience provided a positive marginal effect on outcomes for high-achieving transfer students. The effect was one-third to two-thirds of a letter grade depending on the amount of experience.

在混合学习环境中,在线和混合体验对结果的影响
在商业和经济统计混合课程中的结局将根据学生以前在线和混合课程的经验进行评估。严重依赖在线资料的课堂形式的经验可能会转化为后续混合课程中更好的结果。我们将探讨由于以前的经验是否会给学生带来任何重大收获。当使用全部学生样本对结果进行分析时,发现既往经验与没有经验对结果没有影响。但是,当考虑到学生的转学状况和平均成绩范围时,发现在线和混合的经验对成绩优异的转学生提供了积极的边际效应。
