1.1.2 Online Learning vs Face-to-Face
An analysis of different Learning Environment, Type of Learning Content, Pace of Learning, Types of Assessments that distinguish Online learning and f2f learning.
3. Reading Requirements
F2F: Students typically have regular reading assignments from the textbook and other resources provided or referred to by the instructor to supplement material covered in the face-to-face classroom.
Online: As in face-to-face courses, there is typically a textbook from which there are assigned readings as well as supplemental resources provided by the instructor. An online course, however, also requires additional extensive reading not necessarily included in the face-to-face course. Lecture documents, discussion postings, student-to-student and student-to-instructor interactions, course assignments must all be accomplished in writing and acquired by the student through reading.
