Online Distance LearningOnce the curriculum has been created, as well as separated from how it is presented, an instructor can address distance learning. Distance Learning is education assisted with technological developments that range from the Postal Service to computer-delivered streaming media. Online distance learning adds measurably to the learning experience, making it accessible to those outside traditional educational institutions; it is already used to reduce class overloading and travel considerations. Online classes are likely to be a combination of websites, simulations, and video networking or multimedia. Tutorials might very well be compact disks or downloadable files from instructor or institution sites. Some technological modes are: computer-based lecture delivery, chat groups, e-mail, and database-oriented testing facilities. These components are an assist to presentation, as opposed to content. Student interaction and collaboration can be managed effectively via distance learning; discussion may also be enabled during course creation. - Page 3 of 5 - ©2002 Ormer Technologies
