This paper describes a quantitative study on the use of course technology/online education to enhance student learning. The objective was to study the effects of using course technology/online education upon the success and learning of undergraduate students in a particular course. The course, Fundamentals of Programming, was taught over the course of 4 semesters and 75 students were evaluated. The course takes place in a hands-on lab classroom. The Fall Term A and B semester courses did not use the technology and the Spring Term A and B semester courses did. All students in both courses were given the same in-class instruction and the same number of similar assignments. The two research questions are: (1) What is the comparison of student grades and course completion between the Fall semester course without course technology and the Spring semester course using course technology; and (2) Do student grades correlate with access and usage of course technology during the Spring semester course?
Keywords: technology-enhanced instruction, student learning, retention, assessment
