Journal of Educational Computing Research, 26(2), 191-201. doi: 10.2190/eqwd-cab0-3h7e-kpuehttp://hdl.handle.net/11244/25547This study measured the effect of specific white space features on learning from instructional Web materials. The study also measured learners' beliefs regarding Web-based instruction. Prior research indicated that small changes in the handling of presentation elements can affect learning. Achievement results from this study indicated that in on-line materials, when content and overall structure are sound, minor differences regarding table borders and vertical spacing in text do not hinder learning. Beliefs regarding Web-based instruction and instructors who use it did not differ significantly between treatment groups. Implications of the study and cautions regarding generalizing from the results are discussed.en-USResearch Article10.2190/eqwd-cab0-3h7e-kpuefalse
