Title Blended learning in finance : comparing student perceptions of lectures, tutorials and online learning environments across different year levels Author(s) Farley, Alan Jain, Ameeta Thomson, Dianne Journal name Economic papers Volume number 31 Issue number 1 Start page 99 End page 108 Publisher Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Asia Place of publication Richmond, Vic Publication date 2011-03 ISSN 1759-3441 Keyword(s) blended learning face-to-face teaching online teaching student perception Summary In modern pedagogy, a blended approach is used comprising both face-to-face and online learning. This study investigates how undergraduate students majoring in finance view the different learning environments, and evaluates the changes in perception over the three years of the degree after controlling for gender, age, international/domestic student and English as a first language. Using a purpose designed survey instrument, students across the three years of undergraduate study rated the importance of lectures, tutorials and web-based learning environments in a blended learning model. The results indicate that there is still a strong preference for face-to-face learning. Additionally, there were significant differences in attitudes and perception by year level.
