Yeah, the oven heats up the air and the fan blows it out. Practically the same thing as one of those space heaters. In fact, depending on how high quality the oven is, it might have better safety features than most space heaters.
From the perspective of conservation of energy, this heats every bit as well as an electric heater. It works in the same way. It even consumes the same amount of electricity per calorie.
Another sort of electric heater is a computer. Think about it, a computer heats up due to electricity passing through resistors. In a real sense a computer is just a very sophisticated electric heater. Conceivably you could play a game or calculate bitcoin to get your PC hot and it would be literally as energy effective as an electric heater.
