In addition, we examine how much students liked the
hybrid format of the course, and find that students gave the
hybrid format a modestly lower overall rating than their
counterparts gave the traditional-format course (the rating
was about 11 percent lower). By similar margins, hybrid
students report feeling that they learned less and that they
found the course more difficult. But there were no notable
differences in students’ reports of how much the course raised
their interest in the subject matter.
