TELE-EDUCATION TÉLÉ-ÉDUCATION
TELE-EDUCATION CONCEPT CONCEPT DE TÉLÉÉDUCATION • Quality education in primary, secondary and collegiate levels in developing countries is constrained by non-availability of skilled teachers. • Éducation de qualité dans les niveaux élémentaire, secondaire et collégial dans les pays en voie de développement contraint par le non-disponibilité des professeurs habiles. • Space communication, which is broadcast in nature can be used to spread education to any part of a country quickly and cost effectively. • La communication spatiale, qui est diffusé dans la nature peut être utilisé pour propager rapidement l’éducation au n’importe quelle région d’un pays rapidement et efficacement.
TELE-EDUCATION CONCEPT CONCEPT DE TÉLÉÉDUCATION • Broadcasting or Interactive network. • Radiodiffusion ou réseau interactif. • The interaction could be audio/video.The schemes used are one-way video and two-way audio or two-way video and audio. • L’interaction peut être audio / vidéo unidirectionnel et audio bidirectionnel ou vidéo et audio bidirectionnel. • Broadcast Network is used for primary education since the size of the network is large. Interactive network for teachers training and higher levels of education. • Le réseau de la radiodiffusion est utilisé pour l’éducation élémentaire puisque la grandeur de réseau est vaste. Le réseau interactif pour l’entraînement des professeurs et pour les niveaux d’enseignement supérieurs.
