Excerpt

These findings suggest that there was no loss in quality due to the web format… In this case, quality was not affected by format… These calculations reavealed no differences on three of the background variables–race, urban/rural high school, and parent education…it was shown that both groups [web-based/traditional] performed the same with regard to the achievement variable.
