“Grade Change: Tracking Online Education in the United States, 2013”
This is the 11th annual report on the state of online learning in U.S. higher education from the Babson Survey Research Group, Pearson and the Sloan Consortium:
- Is Online Learning Strategic?
- Are Learning Outcomes in Online Comparable to Face-to-Face Learning?
- How Many Students are Learning Online?
- How are Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) faring?
- And much more…
This survey also reveals that in 2013:
- 7.1 million higher education students are taking at least one online course.
- The 6.1 % growth rate represents over 400,000 additional students taking at least one online course.
- The percent of academic leaders rating the learning outcomes in online education as the same or superior to those as in face-to-face instruction, grew from 57% in 2003 to 74% in 2013.
- The number of students taking at least one online course continued to grow at a rate far in excess of overall enrollments, but the rate was the lowest in a decade.
