Abstract Distance learning is common in higher education, especially online course and degree offerings. However, an older form of distance education, videoconferencing, continues to be used as a method of course delivery. Although some studies have considered the effectiveness of such courses, their findings are mixed and some were conducted with older forms of technology. The present study compares student performance and course and instructor satisfaction between resident and distance students across videoconference undergraduate criminal justice courses. The analyses indicate that students receiving the course through videoconference had lower final grades and were less satisfied with the course and the instructor than those students simultaneously receiving the course through resident instruction, even after controlling for instructor and campus effects.

远程学生在视频会议课程中的表现和满意度

摘要 远程学习在高等教育中很常见，尤其是在线课程和学位课程。然而，一种较老的远程教育形式，即视频会议，继续被用作授课方式。尽管一些研究已经考虑了此类课程的有效性，但他们的研究结果喜忧参半，有些研究是使用较旧的技术形式进行的。本研究比较了视频会议本科刑事司法课程的住院医师和远程学生的学生表现、课程和教师满意度。分析表明，与通过住院医师同时接受课程的学生相比，通过视频会议接受课程的学生最终成绩较低，对课程和教师的满意度较低，
