As college campuses balance in-person classes with online offerings, self-paced courses are still carrying favor among students, according a survey released Wednesday by the edtech company Anthology.
Online, asynchronous courses were generally the most popular with students, regardless of the type of school attended. First-generation students in particular favor fully online courses, with 70% choosing online as their preferred class structure. Almost half of community college students in the survey picked online, asynchronous courses as their top choice for learning.
