Foil 12 Lessons from JSU Experiment I

From Overview of Tango applications Tango Tutorial San Diego MRA -- June 26 27 98 Datemod;June 18 98. by TangoInteractive Team


1 Students liked the job relevant skills taught
2 Important to have curricula mentor and technology expert at remote site; important to visit 2 or 3 times a semester
3 Digital Audio/video less stressful to lecturer than speaker phone
4 "Shy" students are helped by remote format as digital interactions are "personality neutral"
5 Need to keep to the point -- digressions, which are often helpful in standard lectures, tend to lose students
6 Need to keep everything synchronized -- chat as we tended to use it caused confusing delay
7 Experiments were successful but conservative -- we deliberately tried to reproduce "time honored approach" -- we can expect there to be different optimal approach in distance case than in face to face case -- find by more experiments!
