Subject:question on removing the teacher/trainer From:Alexander Friedlander <friedlac -at- drexel -dot- edu> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Tue, 28 Nov 2000 13:47:56 -0500
Dear TECHWR-L Colleagues:
One of our graduates is doing some research on learning in
environments where the "real" teacher has been removed. She is
specifically interested in any experiences you might be aware of or
any published research you know about.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Here is her request:
=======================================================
Do any of you have any experience or knowledge of information on:
The success of turning "stand-up training/teaching" into
computerized training with an interactive CD and web program.
In other words, does anyone really learn anything this way? Can you
get rid of the human teacher if you have good enough courseware, or
do you always need a human to go with it? If so, how much human
interaction?
Please email responses (discussion or references welcome) to
mswearengen -at- pragmasystems -dot- com and cc to friedlac -at- drexel -dot- com -dot-
Thank you for any time you may spend on us!
