Abstract

We investigate the impact of a virtual learning environment (VLE) on the results of 190 undergraduate students, mostly statistics or mathematics majors, enrolled on a course in applied statistics. The VLE provides access to a variety of tailor-made resources varying in degrees of interactivity, including videos of lectures, and is intended to supplement weekly face-to-face lectures. Student engagement with the VLE is automatically tracked. We investigate what VLE resources students use and when, and whether academic background impacts on how these are used. Finally, a model for academic achievement based on student interaction with the VLE is built.
