Teaching on the World Wide Web

There are several options for delivery of instruction via the Web:

  • E-mail correspondence instruction—instructions and/or assignments are e-mailed back and forth between students and instructor.
  • Web-enhanced instruction—relevant links are listed on a Web page that was created by the instructor. This option can be used as a supplement to on-site instruction.
  • Web-managed instruction—software is used to provide an architecture for course information and materials (i.e. WebCT, Blackboard, TopClass, etc.)
  • Web-delivered instruction—courseware in which the instruction, interactions, and feedback are delivered via the Web (also referred to as Web-based training or WBT).
