This study examined the impact of online discussions in blended undergraduate courses in three disciplines: educational technology, engineering, and English education. Results showed that students from all courses were comfortable using online discussions and saw them as a way to express opinions and learn course content. However, differences in the

And although students with low levels of self-direction may not have the strategies needed to perform well initially in this environment, specific pedagogical features of PBL are thought to facilitate the development of these skills. The purpose of this study is to present findings related to the ...
