Abstract
Social presence in higher education online learning can be complex and challenging. To examine whether video instruction had an influence on course success, a between-subjects design was chosen to compare two groups of students enrolled in introductory psychology courses at a Christian College in the Southwest United States. The convenience sample (N = 281) was divided into two groups, including those that received video instruction (N = 144) and those that did not (N = 137). The results demonstrated that while there were higher numerical final course grades for the classes that received video instruction, there was not a statistically significant difference in overall course success between the two groups (U = 8947, p = .159). Implications and limitations are discussed.
