About the distance learning

 

           The rationale for choosing distance learning as the format of our continuing education courses.

1. Some participants practice/reside out of our city, so they are unable to attend the live seminar;

2. Modernized educational techniques using electronic audiovisual aids are reasonable means for continuing education.

3. We do not offer hands-on technique courses in continuing education programs at present.

 

The method of instruction/interaction used in our distance learning courses.

Electron communication refers to web camera, webmail, DVD, etc.; questionnaires before and after each lesson can be used to measure/assess the participants progress and learning outcomes. The questionnaires should be returned to the instructor electronically before and after each lesson. For example:

The participant is unable to answer most questions before he/she takes the lesson, but he/she will be able to answer most questions after he/she take the lesson.

For distance learning courses, the participant will take lessons using online chatrooms and electronic questionnaires.

 

How we determine that the participant will have access to the technology needed for your distance learning courses.

We will use telephone conversation and internet chat rooms to test and screen participants to be sure that they are able to access the instructional format (internet) of our course. Because participants will receive instruction via the internet, we must determine that they have access to such technology before signing them up. For example, because the internet is involved, we will assure that the participants computer allow him or her full access to all features of the courses, such as real-time video, or downloading of files in the formats that we provide. During the lesson, we have a roll call, and participants will have to sign in, fill out questionnaires, and send them back to us electronically.

 

What technical support us for our distance learning courses?

We will use internet, which has become popular. The messenger programs are free and easy to use. In case the participants have difficulty using technology, we will resolve the problem. We will provide technical support if the participant is having problems with any necessary programs and/or with access to websites. Yahoo’s internet services will be used.

 

How feedback is given to participants while our distance learning course is in progress.

We require participants to take questionnaires/quizzes or complete assignments with the internet before and after each lesson.

 

How we determine that the participants are in fact present when our distance learning course instruction is being held.

Our distance learning courses award a certificate of completion. During the lesson, we have a roll call; participants have to sign in and take questionnaires and send them back to us electronically.

 

How the learning outcomes of our distance learning course can be met with the delivery format that it employs.

We employ electron communication means such as web camera, webmail, etc. to teach the theories; the participants can communicate with instructors and classmates at same time; before and after each lesson questionnaires can be used to measure/assess the participants progress and learning outcomes. Moreover, for practitioners, we do not offer kinesthetic courses but cognitive courses only. Therefore, it is not difficult to achieve our aim.

 

Whatever registration information or password is needed to access our distance learning courses.

We will use Yahoo’s chatroom, our access address is kexin_bao@yahoo.com
