ENTRY 5 - Internet based distance education
This presentation was very long and heavy for me. I felt that there was alot of information but lack of time. Some parts were very useful but it was not fully discussed. But i appreciate the presentors work as i got lots of new information that i am not aware of. At least when there is some kind of converstion on the content manangement, tools involved, i won't be alienated. It shows that the management on the tools in presenting the distance learning works hand in hand with the module presented. Sections that really facinated me was the virtual learning in hawai, the law faculty. It is really fascinating and learner friendly. Currently another section i am impressed is the licence to purchase online text/boooks and other related information that can be viewed without purchasing the hard copy. this really helps online learners. infact i believe not only distance learners but any learners can get latest information without purchasing the book in the bookstore. this is the best thing i like about distance learning which is anytime, anywhere through the net. Well i wonder if in future there will not be schools, university but all will have distance learning. Is there such distance learning for children currently in any part of the world? i guess i should find out......

ReplyDelete- Google for the above. There's significant discussions and applications going on at this point!
I guess, there will be. As the world is progressing rapidly, things might change. Besides if educators do have cds to teach children 4 basic skills, i won't be surprise it can happen. I wonder if this happen, will Japan be the first to have this school. I say this that I'm really amazed with the technology advancing in Japan. Recently i read in the papers that a pen could replace a laptop. It has special features (infra red ) that it only needs a flat area and wall to project the monitor and keyboard. Well many other advance technology has been created in Japan.
