Effective Online learning: A matter of making sound models work

The authors have used modeling techniques to gain understanding of causes and relationships in online learning environments. The cases that the modeling relates to, origin in the large Norwegian research project NettLoeR, which runs online courses for more than 2000 participants on various topics and levels. The modeling work seem to indicate that good learning models from earlier learning research may be the methods to be chosen also in online learning, but the conditions to make them work are more limited and more critical than before.
