You may have conversations from time to time with students who are attending college differently than you do.

You may have conversations from time to time with students who are attending college differently than you do.  You might make the argument that an online education is superior, listing the advantages you have experienced.  Another person who attended a “brick-and-mortar” campus may not think as highly of online coursework, and may provide his or her list of advantages for that type of learning experience.  How might you design a study to systematically examine the similarities and differences that exist among online, classroom, and hybrid educational approaches?  Based on your design, how would you measure the outcomes (i.e., which type of learning approach is superior)?  Utilize at least one scholarly source that is cited according to APA format to support your perspective.
