| We investigate the relationship between students' perceived course convenience and its association with perceived learning. Course convenience offers students flexibility among other benefits, however, real learning requires effort, interaction, time on task, and motivation. Thus we expected that perceived learning would be negatively associated with course convenience. Our analysis of 500+ student survey responses shows that course convenience associates with perceived learning. This robust finding holds regardless of course format and across a variety of model specifications. |
