Unpacking the Impact of E-Learning Participation on Academic Performance: An experimental study.
Abstract
This paper explores the relationship between students' final exam scores and their participation in distance learning forums and platforms. The study investigates whether active engagement in online forums and educational platforms correlates with improved academic performance. Analyzing data from distance learners in Hellenic Open University, the research examines participation metrics, such as frequency of forum posts, responses to peers, and engagement with course materials.
Preliminary findings suggest a positive correlation between students' participation in online forums and their final exam marks. Students who actively contributed to discussions, sought clarification, and collaborated with peers tended to perform better in their exams.
Understanding this relationship is essential for educators and institutions aiming to enhance online learning outcomes. Insights from this research may inform instructional strategies and course design, emphasizing the importance of fostering robust online learning communities to support student success in distance education.
