• W286871566 abstract "Abstract There seems to be considerable debate today on the subject of distance learning. Two of the more pertinent questions are: Is distance learning necessary and is distance learning as effective an instructional delivery method as the traditional classroom lecture method of instruction. In today's Internet society, not only is distance learning necessary, with the proper preparation by instructors and students, it is also an effective way to deliver course material and instruction. Distance learning can provide and even exceed the level of instruction and student satisfaction as that of a traditional lecture course. As a student that has participated in a variety of distance education courses as well as traditional classroom lecture courses, it is my belief that the success of all educational opportunities is considerably more dependent upon the skills of the instructor and the desires and abilities of the students than that of the method of delivery. ********** Is Distance Learning Necessary The necessity of distance learning is easily answered. Successful companies and organizations are the ones that look for changing trends in the way customers, consumers, and citizens wish to do business. The Interact provides a way for organizations to make their products and services available to consumers and clients in the home. Businesses are using the Interact to sell products to customers that may not wish to visit a retail store. Governments are providing services, such as license renewal, through the Internet. For education to ignore the opportunity to accommodate students would be a mistake. Distance learning affords educational opportunities to individuals unable to attend conventional classroom settings. This would include: Individuals with disabilities, individuals living in a rural community where the commute to a university or college would be difficult, and individuals with time restrictions preventing them from taking classes. The arguments against the necessity of distance learning tend to be concerns regarding the loss of the traditional face-to-face rapport of the instructor and student and fears of distance learning expanding to K-12 education. Many K-12 educators are fearful that the use of computers in school or at home will do little more than offer entertainment to the students. However, these comments are contrary to the national effort to increase technology in the classrooms. Resisting the use of computer technology and distance learning may also prevent or slow students' exposure to technology that will certainly be necessary in the future. A scan of help wanted advertising clearly indicates the need for employees with computer technology skills. The more computer related skills a job seeker may have, especially in Interact related technology, the better the chance of securing meaningful employment. Companies are demanding students with technology skills, and K-12 schools must respond to this demand. Rather than fear that computers will only provide entertainment value for students, the teachers must respond by preparing their students for computer use and distance learning. Is Distance Learning Effective The other concern, loss of rapport among instructors and students, does not pose a question regarding the necessity of distance learning but rather asks whether distance learning can be delivered with the same results as the classroom lecture structure. This question is not as simple to answer. The main concerns are whether distance learning will provide students with the necessary interaction skills often learned through interchange with instructors and other students, whether students have the same opportunities to learn the materials, and whether students are satisfied with the distance courses (The Institute for Higher Education, 1999). Unfortunately, a review of journal articles addressing these issues does not provide for an easy judgment. …" @default.
