Comparative analysis of classroom learning and web site courseware using AHP

摘要

Distance teaching and learning using the network have an advantage over the conventional education in the classroom concerning their openness and flexibility. They are regarded as the effective means of providing educational opportunities for everyone beyond the restriction of the time and space. However, a measure for evaluating the effectiveness of those systems is not defined specifically. In this paper, using AHP(Analytic Hierarchy Process), we evaluate the effectiveness of the web site courseware compared with conventional classroom learning. Based on the result of the experiment we performed, we also show the degree of effectiveness and the point to be improved about the web site courseware.
