Academic Performance, Instructional Designs, Distance Education, Information Technology in Education, Teaching ModelsAbstract
In this paper we present a comparative analysis between distance education vs. traditional education trough three issues: teaching models, instructional design, and academic performance. In each issue we highlight the follow topics: a) teaching models: distance education is growing, however we do not expect the elimination of the traditional education, b)Instructional design: this issue is different between distance education vs. traditional education, and c) academic performance: there is no significant difference in academic results for students who develop a distance learning courses and students taking the same courses in a classroom.
