This research explores communicative influences on |
|
cognitive learning and educational affect in online and |
|
offline courses limited to only enrolled students. A |
|
survey was conducted of students (N = 147) enrolled in |
|
online and offline courses within a single department |
|
during Summer, 2013. Respondents were asked about their |
|
classroom communication and perceptions, and survey |
|
responses were subjected to structural equation modeling |
|
to predict each respondent's final course grade and |
|
educational affect. Results provide mixed support for |
|
Carr et al.'s [1] communicative influence in education |
|
model (CIEM), with strong and significant effects |
|
identified only for online courses. While hypotheses |
|
regarding the mediating effects of instructor credibility |
|
and social identification with colearners were rejected, |
|
direct effects of course modality on these variables were |
|
identified. Findings are discussed with respect to |
|
differences in online and offline communication, online |
|
and offline courses, and implications for educators and |
|
institutions. |
