Delaware Technical & Community College provides students with four different distance education opportunities: telecourses, online, CD-ROM and interactive television. All but telecourses have a built-in interactivity, either with supplemental material on the World Wide Web or with the instructor and other students through the various communication tools available.

520 $a Delaware Technical & Community College provides students with four different distance education opportunities: telecourses, online, CD-ROM and interactive television. All but telecourses have a built-in interactivity, either with supplemental material on the World Wide Web or with the instructor and other students through the various communication tools available.
520 $a The problem is that students taking Delaware Tech telecourses are not as successful as students taking other Delaware Tech distance education courses. Success is defined as whether a student earned an A, B or C as the final course grade.
520 $a An increasing number of reports state that students are more likely to find success in distance education courses if, along with other variables, they feel connected to the instructor and to other students. These reports suggest the use of communication tools such as Web-based chat rooms, discussion forums and email as means of providing interactivity.
520 $a The current study consists of three papers. Paper One is a review of the literature on distance education as it relates to telecourses. This literature review provides a taxonomy of strategies that can be used to increase student performance in telecourses at Delaware Tech. Themes include learner characteristics and instructional design as they relate to successful completion of a distance education course. Also included is historical information on distance education at Delaware Tech. The strategies collected as a result of the literature review serve as the road map for the creation of a distributed learning model at Delaware Tech.
520 $a Paper Two creates a distributed learning model that provides a Web-based component for telecourses at Delaware Tech. The model sets up guidelines for distributed learning courses at Delaware Tech and provides components that need to be incorporated into every approved distributed learning course at the college. Also included in this paper are the results of a first-ever college-wide survey of students about their telecourse experience. This survey is the result of a request from Delaware Tech's President's Council to survey telecourse, online and on-campus students to determine the use of technology. The outcomes from the surveys will be used to support development of a new Distance Education Plan.
520 $a Paper Three recommends to Delaware Tech a plan to incorporate an online component into telecourses and examines a means of training faculty to redesign telecourses. Included in this paper is the introduction of a self-scoring rubric and guidelines faculty can used to incorporate various online components into their telecourses.
