The purpose of this study was to examine the academic effectiveness of Internet-based developmental mathematics instruction for community college students. A quasi-experimental design was utilized in which the effectiveness was measured in three ways: (1) by comparing the success rates of both groups in the remedial mathematics course as measured by a passing grade; (2) by comparing the achievement as measured by mean scores on the Texas Assessment of Skills Program test taken after the course; and (3) by comparing the success rates of both groups in their first college mathematics class after remediation. In addition to the method of study, the variables of age, gender, ethnicity, and reading ability were analyzed for their effect on achievement using a multiple regression analysis.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a The purpose of this study was to examine the academic effectiveness of Internet-based developmental mathematics instruction for community college students. A quasi-experimental design was utilized in which the effectiveness was measured in three ways: (1) by comparing the success rates of both groups in the remedial mathematics course as measured by a passing grade; (2) by comparing the achievement as measured by mean scores on the Texas Assessment of Skills Program test taken after the course; and (3) by comparing the success rates of both groups in their first college mathematics class after remediation. In addition to the method of study, the variables of age, gender, ethnicity, and reading ability were analyzed for their effect on achievement using a multiple regression analysis.
520 $a One thousand eight-hundred and seventy-five students were included in the control group, study by the traditional method. One hundred and sixty students were in the population of the observed group, study by Internet. The Internet developmental mathematics course was an off-line, home study course that utilized the Internet for teacher/student and student/student communication. Students turned-in completed assignments via the Internet. The course exam was conducted on campus along with the traditional students.
520 $a The results of this study should be of importance to educational administrators at the community college and in the K--12 school system. It is quite probable that the Internet study of developmental mathematics at community colleges today will soon be replicated at high schools utilizing the very same delivery system to provide for-credit classes.
520 $a Results of the study showed a statistically significant difference was observed with the traditional method of study yielding a much greater successful completion rate. The achievements of the successful students from both groups were found to be statistically equal. However, the success rate of students that studied their remedial mathematics in the traditional manner demonstrated a much greater success rate in College Algebra than those who studied remedial mathematics via the Internet.
520 $a No statistically significant correlations were identified by the multiple regression analysis between achievement and the other variables.
