Abstract

The purpose of this research project was to determine if online learning could be adapted to individual learning styles and if that made a difference in the standardized testing scores of Internet students. We then compared those scores to those of traditional students. It has clearly been shown that online learning is adaptive, whereas traditional classrooms are not always adaptable. Our goal was to establish whether online learning and adaptive learning styles made a difference in test scores, and if so, could that knowledge be utilized in the traditional classroom? The answer was yes to both questions.
