This study was performed to investigate the effects of live online course on students’ achievement at distance learning. 63 second-year Distance Computer Education & Instructional Technology students enrolled in this study. At the live online course, the instructor presented physics lessons. Midterm, final and make-up scores were examined after the LOC instruction. Students who are LOCFF (n=32), joined over 50% percent and they had significantly higher scores than students who are LOCFR (n=31), joined below 50% percent to the lessons.
