Introducing the Internet and Other Distance Learning Tools

In this chapter on the internet and distance learning I found it intersting that there is little variation in achievement from distance learning compared to traditional face-to-face learning. Although, there is years of research that confirm the effectiveness of some forms of distance learning. There also seems to be an increase of studies of strategies to use distance learning. This chapter provided a good overview of what distance learing is and how we can use it in the classroom. The section on how we can introduce the internet to our class will also be an effective tool for us. It shows how to use the internet and ways to keep our student from going to internet sites they should go to.
