Abstract

Abstract: The impact study conducted in a residential engineering university in rural India evaluated the effect of blended learning (BL) on the Engineering students' learning experience and effectiveness. Data collected through the post-course student survey and students' performance scores in the end-of-semester examination helped in understanding students' perceptions on blended learning and analysing blended learning effectiveness. Though the t-test results of achievement comparison between BL students and non-BL students' were mixed; the perceptions of students leaned in favour of blended learning. This paper presents the Engineering students' perceptions towards blended learning experience and effectiveness of their teachers' blended instructional practices and the correlation between students' blended learning satisfaction and achievement.
