Definitions: Distance
Education
From book:
 Distance education is institution-based,
formal education where the learning group is
separated, and where interactive
telecommunications systems are used to
connect learners, resources, and instructors.
 There can be no distance education without
distance teaching

What is “Active Learning”?
“anything that involves students
in doing things and thinking about
the things they are doing.”
Bonwell, Charles C. & James A. Eison (1991).
Active Learning: Creating Excitement in the Classroom.
ASHE-ERIC Higher Education Report No. 1.
Washington, DC: The George Washington University,
School of Education and Human Development. p. 2.

Discussions and Wrap-Up
You will be randomly assigned to a small group. In your group, discuss what you
each consider to be the most important ideas put forth in Chapter 2 of the Teaching
and Learning at a Distance text. Refer to knowledge, resources, articles, and other
information of which you are already aware if appropriate. In your group, explain
how these ideas have had or will have an impact on online learning and teaching,
particularly if such impact might exist within your own locus of control or in an
environment of which you are aware (like this course!). Questions to consider:
• Why are there different definitions of DE?
• What does Keegan mean by "reintegration of teaching”?
• What does ‘equivalence of learning’ mean?
• Why is the concept important in distance education?
For the purposes of wrap-up, in your group, decide on one aspect of your
discussion you'd like to share with the entire class. Elect one of your group to share
that aspect in about two minutes with the larger group during wrap-up.
