Approaches to Study of Distance Education Students.
Wong, Shu-Lun
Research in Distance Education, v4 n3 p11-17 Jul 1992
A survey of 89 on-campus and 50 teleconferencing students (71 percent response) showed that 83 percent of externals were over 19 and 94 percent of internals were 18 or less. External students had higher scores for intrinsic motivation, interrelating ideas, and deep approach; internal students for fear of failure, surface approach, achievement motivation, and extrinsic motivation.
