Abstract:
This report is part of a series of annual research papers on the California Innovation and Alternative Instructional Delivery Program. Due to "flex funding" legislation, the enrollment of adult students in the "innovation programs" in 2010-2011 declined 77% in two years. The report presents data from the annual Innovation Program applications, the statewide student information system, TOPSPro, and statewide CASAS reading and listening tests. Data covers distance learning program characteristics, learner characteristics, and learner progress and outcomes using several measures. For the sixth year, the report is able to compare and contrast key outcome data between classroom, distance learning only, and blended learning. The importance of blended learning as an effective intervention is clearly documented.
