Summary:
We evaluated the cognitive differences between online and face-to-face learning using electroencephalogram (EEG) measurements with EEG phase gradient (PG) analysis on a scalp map. The results indicated that during online learning, in contrast to face-to-face learning, the beta-band (15-30 Hz) PG in the anterior-to-posterior direction were significantly increased. Of note, this pattern was similar to those observed during resting period. This characterized neural processing during learning, suggesting that online lectures evoke more relaxing states similar with resting than face-to-face lectures that would evoke some certain types of activations in the social context.
