Extensive research has shown that person-centered learning aiming at students’ development on the
levels of intellect, skills, and attitudes is effective in face-to-face education. More recently, advances in
web-technology let us ask: Is humanistic, person-centered learning also effective along the application of
modern technology? In this contribution we reflect 10 years of research at the University of Vienna,
Austria. Essentially, we found that, given learners perceive the teacher’s or facilitator’s person-centered
attitudes and courses employ a thoughtful blend of face-to-face and online elements, courses tend to
be perceived by students as carrying value far beyond just cognitive gains: for example, students indicate
that – more than with traditional instruction – they are motivated to engage in active, self-initiated
learning. In particular, they improve their team skills, interpersonal relationships, and become better
listeners. They learn significantly from the multiple perspectives they perceive.
