Syllabus: Putting a Faculty Face on Distance Education Programs

Syllabus: Putting a Faculty Face on Distance Education Programs
"Good distance learning programs can range from well-designed and well-written text to streaming video and accompanying media of various types. But media alone does not offer guidance and personal engagement. A blended or hybrid approach, using faculty facilitators or mentors, adds a human touch to distance learning. These faculty are not necessarily content experts, but facilitators or mentors who have a degree in the appropriate academic discipline. They participate with a physical presence, or in certain circumstances, a virtual presence."
