Distance Education• The delivery of instruction to students
who are separated from their teacher by time and/or location• The teacher may be at one site and students at
other sites• Or all may be on the same site but at different
times
![Page 3: Integration of Distance Education to Support Learning.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062503/5a4d1ae77f8b9ab0599796ec/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Distance Education• Technology bridges the time/location gap• DE originally developed to deliver
instruction to remote, rural locations• Today, DE delivers instruction at places
and times convenient to learners

• DE impacts teachers by•Offering flexible licensing renewal
and/or professional development•Changing the parameters of
instruction •No longer bounded by classroom walls

Distance EducationDE has impacted education by
• Changing course offerings in higher education• Encouraging creation of virtual high schools in
many states• Supporting district-wide courses in virtual
classrooms• Providing instruction to homebound students

Started as correspondence courses •Readings and assignments were sent via mail
•Tests were proctored locally•Learning was independent and isolated

• Radio and television were added to enrich DE instruction
• Telephones added interaction between instructor and students
• Phone bridges added student-to-student interaction as well

• The PC and the Internet have advanced DE instruction by• Adding interaction through email, conferences,
and chats• Offering live and recorded streaming audio and
video• Including multimedia presentations in courses

• Adaptation of distance education methods and technology for use in traditional classrooms
• Enhances classroom instruction by• Allowing master teachers or guests to join
classes via DE• Facilitating team teaching and cooperative
learning
Alternative Delivery

Designing DE Instruction• Design adjustments are needed for DE• These include:
•A strategic instructional design that fully articulates the course components and required technologies
•A well articulated lesson plan that anticipates and responds to contingencies
![Page 13: Integration of Distance Education to Support Learning.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062503/5a4d1ae77f8b9ab0599796ec/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Designing DE Instruction• Extended preparation of students for
participating in a distance environment• Well-planned and articulated feedback
systems• Contingency plans for curriculum and
technical problems• Alternative, well defined and tested
evaluation processes

DE Support TechnologiesSynchronous Support Technologies• Technologies that support instruction that occurs
at the same time• May be at the same or at different locationsAsynchronous Support Technologies• Technologies that support time-shifted instruction• May be at the same or different locations

Synchronous TechnologiesTelephone Technologies
• Speakerphones and audio conferencing let a small group in one location communicate with others
• Conference Calls allow people in multiple locations to communicate
• Phone bridges let large groups communicate by calling into a single number

Synchronous TechnologiesVideo Conferencing
• Compressed video conferencing system lets rooms of people interact via broadband phone lines
• PC compressed video conferencing equipment and software allows individuals to participate together at lower quality
• District-wide systems connect students in schools in interactive video classrooms
![Page 18: Integration of Distance Education to Support Learning.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062503/5a4d1ae77f8b9ab0599796ec/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Synchronous TechnologiesInternet Chat
• Private chat rooms can be created so invited students can interact with each other
• Chats may be text only or may include audio, visual, and video components
• Chats offer the potential to involve everyone in high quality, thoughtful interaction

• Threads can be started by the teacher – Can be an assignment or can be generated by students in a
virtual study group• Social learning and idea exchange is supported by
this technology
![Page 23: Integration of Distance Education to Support Learning.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062503/5a4d1ae77f8b9ab0599796ec/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Asynchronous TechnologiesClass Web Sites
• Offer distance students a single virtual location – All course information, tools, and materials
• An alternative delivery enhancement to traditional courses
• Makes the course accessible at a time and place convenient to students
![Page 24: Integration of Distance Education to Support Learning.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062503/5a4d1ae77f8b9ab0599796ec/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Issues in Distance EducationTeachers and/or students may not be ready for• New roles and responsibilities• New technologies• New methods and materials
• Teachers may need to adjust to increased time demands for planning and management
![Page 25: Integration of Distance Education to Support Learning.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062503/5a4d1ae77f8b9ab0599796ec/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Issues in Distance Education• Technical support necessary but often not
sufficiently anticipated or funded• Instructional support typical of a
traditional setting may be less or absent in DE

Allyn and Bacon 2005
New Copyright Issues•The TEACH Act somewhat clarifies
what can be copied •Often more restrictive than the Fair
Use provisions •A necessary first step in copyright
clarification for DE
