Publication Type: Abstract Abstract: Objectives: To compare academic performance between students enrolled at a distance learning campus and those receiving traditional-style education on the main campus. Methods: Pharmacy students in our program receive education either in traditional style (live classroom lectures) on the main campus in Baltimore or through asynchronous delivery (watching recorded lectures and attending live faculty-led small group activities and office hours) on the distant education campus in Rockville. Identical exams and quizzes were administered simultaneously on both campuses and graded by the lecturer in Baltimore. Scores from tests, quizzes, and projects were statistically evaluated with GraphPad Prism software. Results: In the Fall 2007, the Baltimore and Rockville campuses had 120 and 40 first-year students, respectively, with insignificant differences in prepharmacy GPA (3.43 vs. 3.18) and PCAT scores (88.54 vs. 88.13). Twenty-six written assessments were administered on each campus. Grades on the majority (37) of the 52 assessments satisfied the test for normal distribution. Means (± standard deviation) were calculated for each assessment on each campus and they were compared between the two campuses using a two-tailed paired t-test. The mean-of-the-means values were 85.49 ± 5.81 and 85.77 ± 5.37 for the Baltimore and Rockville campuses, respectively. The difference was not statistically significant (P = 0.41). Implications: Student performance, assessed by grades, was equivalent on both campuses. This indicates that hybrid delivery of education can provide comparable outcomes to those offered by traditional methods of learning.
