Furthermore, it describes how students' learning outcomes in the learning environment were measured using an integrative complexity measure.  To create a learner-centered active learning environment, various Internet-based communication tools were used to connect students in the two locations.  The authors found that despite various hindrances due to technical breakdowns and geographic separations, students were able to produce complex and comprehensive arguments after three sessions.  Several implications for future distance learning and the use of information technology in classrooms are discussed. - Reproduced.  aManagement education  aJournal of Management Education
