Challenges in healthcare education: a correlational study of outcomes using two learning techniques.
Electronic learning has become an important tool in today's changing healthcare environment. Institutions confronted with limited resources, in the face of increased demands for education and a shortage of educators, have found electronically based education a significant resource. This study compares electronic-blended instruction technique with instructor-led delivery of the same content and examines the correlation of learning effectiveness to each delivery method.
