q2 · i? · causal · r2

Moodle platform access logs collected after the experimental period, reported in the Hypothesis 1 validation. The article states the "average rate of access of online students in experimental group to online course is 6.38" versus 2.67 for the control group. Descriptive rates; no test statistic printed.

"the average rate of access of online students in experimental group to online course is 6.38 and this is higher than the average rate of access of students in the control group which is 2.67."

q2 · i? · causal · r2

Access-log data on learning activities (individual exercise and online discussion forum) from the same Hypothesis 1 validation section. The article reports the activity access rate "higher in case of the experimental group (7.92) compared to the control group (6.05)". Descriptive comparison only.

"the rate of access of students to learning activities is higher in case of the experimental group (7.92) compared to the control group (6.05)."
