Comparative study: Face-to-face learning and blended learning

Abstract

This article reviews the comparison between the grades and student’s perception obtained in two courses in their face-to-face and blended modalities. The courses on which we worked were Descriptive and Probability Statistics, which uses the STEM methodology, and Individual and Environment, which does not use it. The results show no statistically significant differences between the students' grades according to the modality in any of the two courses and semesters that were reviewed for this study. This is consistent with what was found in the theoretical review. This article aims to help the discussions and decision making around the growth in blended learning in Peru, which presents itself as an alternative to traditional lecturing.
