  1. Storyboard for Distance Education Bianca Lochner 8841 Walden University

  2. Distance Education • Distance education represents an important alternative to address current challenges and to make education accessible to all. • Distance education represents the transmission of knowledge through various media and information channels to provide more flexible educational models

  3. Needs

  4. Research • Distance education provides students with a rewarding experience that is just as challenging and effective as a traditional face to face (F2F) learning environment. • Simonson developed the equivalency theory as a framework to distinguish between distance and face-to-face education and emphasized that DE should not be identical with education practiced in a F2F environment Laureate, 2008). DE should have the same learning outcomes as traditional education and should provide equivalent learning experiences to meet these outcomes (Laureate, 2008). • Using technologies, theoretical approaches and appropriate instructional strategies, combining synchronous and asynchronous instruction are all methods that enhance distance education outcomes (Anderson, 2008).

  5. Research • Distance education instructional designers should have knowledge of how students learn and of learning theories in order to design effective distance learning environments (Ally, 2008). • Up to 50% of all high school courses will be delivered online by 2019 (Hoover Institute, 2010) • Up to 80% of all instruction will be computer-based by 2024 (Christensen, 2008).

  6. Development • Corporate Training • Post-secondary Institutions • K-12 Educational Environments
