  abstract =     "The use of the Internet is a common theme in current
                 educational technology research. However, hype does not
                 augment learning, and new technology alone does not
                 promise improvement. The question is does Internet
                 presentation alone affect learning outcomes? This study
                 examines two groups of distance learning students on a
                 single course, using the same learning materials, but
                 with different means of communication. One group
                 consists of conventional distance learning students who
                 communicate with their instructors via telephone and
                 written correspondence, while the other group
                 communicates electronically via the Internet.
                 Attitudes, learning styles, self perceptions, grades,
                 and experiences for each group are compared to assess
                 the impact of the Internet, as a communication medium.
                 The Internet as a communication medium is not found to
                 have any significant effect on learning outcomes, and
                 neither is any learning style profile. The student
                 experiences are favourable in both mediums, however
                 those using the Internet reported greater flexibility
                 and faster response times.",
