Understanding Distant Education Learners

Iza and Hana did a very well planned and interesting presentation. It was on about Understanding Distance Education Learners.

From the presentation I was able to gather important points that were vital in my understanding of this topic. Among them were that preparation of a distance learning module whereby it has to be designed to cater the needs of learners of different abilities and level of understanding. It also has to be designed in various methods in order to attract the learners. This process is inevitably difficult and proves to be an obstacle that requires a lot of consideration from the educator.

Besides that, an educator should be planning activities that engages the learners leaving them wanting for more. An educator should bear in mind that this is not a face-to-face learning environment. Therefore, an educator should not only be creative but at the same time innovative as well.
