The research findings regarding the level of learning in face-to-face and b-learning courses have indicated opposite results. Due to this, the present study was carried out with the aim of comparing the level of learning perceived by university students who attended courses in face-to-face and b-learning modalities (blended learning). Two hundred and nineteen students (134 women and 85 men) from different educational programs participated, 45% of the students who took courses in face-to-face mode and 54% in mixed mode (b-learning), who responded to an online instrument that measured: perception of learning acquired on the subject taken, level of development of technological skills and development of communication skills and collaborative work after completing the subject. In the results, it was found a statistically significant difference in the level of self-reported learning by students who took the class on a mixed and face-to-face modality, where the students of the face-to-face courses perceived higher learning about the subject than those who took the class in a b-learning mode. In addition, it was found that the modality described in 24% perceived learning by the students in the subjects studied.
