81. Virtual Teaching In Higher Education Sample Student enrollment at California State University, Northridge, sociology 364, for the Fall of 1996, was increased from the traditional 25 to 40 http://www.csun.edu/sociology/virexp.htm

Virtual Teaching in Higher Education: The New Intellectual Superhighway or Just Another Traffic Jam? Jerald G. Schutte California State University, Northridge email - jschutte@csun.edu Abstract An experimental design was carried out during the Fall, 1996 in which 33 students in a Social Statistics course at California State University, Northridge were randomly divided into two groups, one taught in a traditional classroom and the other taught virtually on the World Wide Web. Text, lectures and exams were standardized between the conditions. Contrary to the proposed hypotheses, quantitative results demonstrated the virtual class scored an average of 20% higher than the traditional class on both examinations. Further, post-test results indicate the virtual class had significantly higher perceived peer contact, and time spent on class work, but a perception of more flexibility, understanding of the material and greater affect toward math, at semester end, than did the traditional class. Since 1994, the World Wide Web and related Internet resources (e.g., e-mail, chat, and news groups) have become an increasing viable component in higher education pedagogy. This has led to significant interest in the implementation of Internet based virtual teaching. Yet little, if any, experimental evidence has been generated to demonstrate the effects of virtual versus traditional class format on student performance. What has appeared is largely qualitative or devoid of empirical analysis altogether and argued as simply a remedy or antidote to the deficiencies of the traditional classroom. If quantitative, the data tend to be based on a single class and hence, no experimental comparison, or self selected samples of two or more classes. Considering the amount of money being expended in higher education on infrastructure, software, training and technological pedagogy, this lack of experimental evidence is unconscionable.

Socio-Economic Research on Technology Social and economic research on technology at RCSS focuses upon the social shaping of technology, particularly in relation to Information and Communications Technologies Research has addressed the development and implementation of company-wide information systems in manufacturing industry and in the finance service sector. More recent work examined the development of Inter-Organisational Networks and Systems such as Electronic Funds Transfer at Point of Sale (EFTPoS) and Electronic Data Interchange. Deep understanding has been achieved of the close relationship between 'technology' and 'organisation' in Information and Communications Technologies - as a process of mutual shaping, rather than the deterministic triumph of one over the other. This work has revealed that innovation is not restricted to the initial Research and Development of new technological products, but continues as they are commercially applied and used. Thus, workplace technologies are reshaped within the industrial setting, as supplier offerings are adapted and further elaborated to meet the requirements of their implementation and use. More recent research projects examine the emergence of Multimedia and the Information Superhighway studying the co-evolution of society and technology, and the interactions between industrial innovators, users at work and home, and public policy.
