ROJAS-ROJASª, Daniel. Impact of Classroom Instruction and Online Education on the Job Situation of Graduates: A Comparative Study. educ.educ. [online]. 2014, vol.17, n.2, pp.339-354. ISSN 0123-1294.  https://doi.org/10.5294/edu.2014.17.2.8.

This study quantifies the differences in impact on the job situation of graduates who have a classroom-based college degree in technology versus those who have an online education degree. A questionnaire was applied to a sample of 102 graduates from an institution of higher education in Colombia who majored in systems technology (51 for each type of instruction). Impact was measured according to the graduates' conditions for employability, fluctuations in the job quality index (ICI), differences in opportunities for job mobility represented by job promotions, the difference in the impact of online and classroom-based education on salaries earned and the difference in continuity in the graduates' academic and professional training. The analysis shows there were significant differences in impact on the job situation of graduates in favor of classroom-based instruction.
