More "Distance Learning"
Future teachers will acquire knowledge of the
design and operation of distance education courses.
Future teachers in this program (10 in Year 1, 20 in Year
2, and 30 in Year 3) will participate in the development
and delivery of distance learning high school courses.
To show examples of the application of
distance education to learning, future teachers will be
involved with several distance learning activities. They
will help develop and deliver I-TV and on-line courses to
high school students, participate in videoconferencing
activities, and take courses delivered either through I-TV
or on-line. Additional linkages to alternate learning
sites and corporate work-sites will be developed to allow
future teachers to see applications of technology outside
the academic setting.
Distance education
effectively breeches limits of distance and time in a
learning environment, giving both student and instructor
the freedom and convenience of choosing when and where to
conduct learning.
