Abstract
A comparison of student learning in a critical thinking exercise for technology decision-making occurred with the onset of coronavirus and the switch from face-to-face to distance with Zoom. Literature on explicit critical thinking skill sets is scant in any format, including distance learning. While face-to-face and Zoom have similarities, seizing this opportunity for comparison can set the stage to determine soundness of distance learning in critical thinking on a preliminary basis. The learning outcome, learning guide and assessment instrument remained the same for the exercise in both formats; student teams presented analyses of different technologies with assessment by 2 faculty as before. Forty students had not completed the exercise when the coronavirus shut down occurred. Students performed at as high a level using virtual/Zoom as with face-to-face.
