This matrix illustrates how a number of teaching activities
can be accomplished within various technology delivery formats. Information
here is based on several broad premises for technology delivered instruction.
The purpose of the matrix is to show the numerous options found within technology
delivered instruction.
The following are the delivery methods used throughout
this site. Each delivery method is one of three types. Available to you, are
definitions of the following terms. To access a definition, click on a term

| Debate/local and remote participants |
|
T1
|
Facilitator will switch
cameras among the origination and receive sites to show debate teams
in different locations. Teams must switch microphones off when not speaking. |
| IP Video |
The IP Video units "switch"
cameras and microphones to the person or persons speaking. Facilitator
coordination may not be needed. |
| Satellite |
With satellite, the receive sites see
the origination sites only, and audio is two-way. Debate will be audio
only. Visual cues will not be evident to teams. |
| Internet |
Online debate might be accomplished
in a chat room, in a text only format, or with web cameras or conferencing
software with the capacity to stream video and switch locations. Cameras
or conferencing software would be an additional cost to instruction. |
| Broadcast Television |
Debate is prerecorded. Enrolled students
are observers, not participants. |
| Video Home Viewing |

IS students generally study in isolation
from other students; the delay in transmitting materials from students
to instructor and back makes debate via Independent Study unlikely. |

| Exam |
|
T1
|
Facilitators, at the direction
of the instructor, proctor exams. Facilitators may grade exams, at the
direction of the instructor, or convey exams to the instructor. The
instructor should plan enough lead time to get tests, either physically
or electronically, from the instructor to the receive sites. |

| Internet |
Online testing can be simple or complex.
Simple: faculty can post exams online. They must assume that students
log in and take their exams, on a honor system, following the instructors
instructions (ex. open book vs. closed book), not unlike a take-home
exam. Online exams can be timed. Immediate feedback often possible.
There are many more elegant, more complex testing solutions such as
using a database pool of questions to dynamically generate a different
subset of items for each student. Test banks may require significant
initial effort (although many publishers make test banks available with
texts) but reduce the effort needed to give exams over time. |
| Broadcast Television |
The instructor will arrange proctor(s)
or may students identify an acceptable proctor. Student may have to
travel to take exam. Standards of best practice suggest travel should
not exceed 30 minutes. Acceptabble proctors include university or college
testing centers, public school superintendents or principals, and public
library reference librarians; relatives, friends, and work supervisors
are unacceptable. |

| Field Trip |
|
T1
|
Setting a field trip to
a single location may depend on where students in the class are located.
Field trips can be designed to instruct students to take an individual
or small group field trip in their locale (ex. attend a performing arts
event, a library, or museum, including events online). Internet resource
enable the student to "visit" almost an infinite number of
"sites" to see what is there. The instructor may "visit
the site first" to determine its strengths and appropriateness.
Field trips involving travel involving minors require insurance coverage,
parental permission, and adult supervision. |

| Guest lecturer/remote |
|
T1
|
Requires facilitator to switch between instructor and lecturer. |
| IP Video |
The IP Video units "switch" cameras and microphones to the remote lecturer. Instructor may coordinate question and answer periods as needed. Facilitator coordination of various equipment the lecturer may wish to use is essential as a guest may not be familiar with switch equipment. |
| Satellite |
With satellite, the receive sites see the origination sites only, and audio is two-way. Students in receive sites will hear the lecturer. NOTE: Remote guest lecturer via satellite is could be prohibitively expensive depending on the location of the lecturer and the effort needed to get a signal of the lecture to the satellite. |
| Internet |
The guest lecturer would prepare written copy, audio, video and have it converted to pdf or HTML, then posted on a website. Lectures can also be pre-taped, then streamed. |
| Broadcast Television |
Lecturers can be pre-taped, then broadcast. If recorded, a lecture can be delivered at one or more times in the future. A guest speaker's written notes, comments, presentation slides can be included mailed or available online to be used as handouts before, during and after broadcast. |

| Hands on experience (eg, mini lab) |
|
T1
|
Like a live classroom, logistics (ex, timing, having students conduct experiments) and room conditions need to be carefully considered: all sites need a "set" of materials and equipment as well as be physically able to stage the activity. Consider staging the activity at one site with other sites observing. Facilitators with knowledge of the topic would be helpful. |

| Lecture |
|
T1
|
Delivering a lecture over T1 is like delivering a lecture in a classroom. Lectures can include PowerPoint-type presentations, whiteboard work, and all other media one might use in a classroom. Successful T1 instructors work to engage students in remote sites. Facilitators can help with this by switching the camera from one site to another. |
| IP Video |
Delivering a lecture in a synchronous situation is like delivering a lecture in a classroom. Lectures can include PowerPoint-type presentations, whiteboard work, and all other media one might use in a classroom. Successful IP Video instructors work to engage students in remote sites. The IP Video equipment will switch the camera from one site to another. |
| Satellite |
Delivering a lecture over satellite is like delivering a lecture in a classroom with the exception that you cannot see your remote students. Lectures can include PowerPoint-type presentations, whiteboard work, and all other media one might use in a classroom. Successful satellite instructors work to engage students in remote sites. Facilitators can help motivate remote students to participate in Q&A and discussion. |
| Internet |
Lectures can be delivered online in print or prerecorded audio/video to be delivered as streaming video. |
| Broadcast Television |
Broadcast classes, in essense, are prerecorded lectures. Again, instructors can include all media available in a classroom or sound stage. Instructors of broadcast classes, who are generally not trained actors, must rehearse and practice broadcast "oration" skills which may seem more exaggerated than public oration used in the classroom. Broadcast quality presentation also involves set design and lighting. Many instructors use a teleprompter to read lengthier passages in their lectures. |

| Make up exam/a few students |
|
T1
|
Because of the cost considerations, activities involving only a few students in a should probably be scheduled off the T1 system. Make up exams would then require a proctor for students remote from the instructor. The proctor will arrange testing date and time. |
| IP Video |

The fact that students may log on to their online class at different times and days takes away a bit of the element of surprise. Instructors can post quizzes on the class website with instructions to complete the exercise within a certain time period. It might be wise to alert students at the beginning of the class that they should log into class on a regular basis and that pop quizzes are a part of the class. |
| Broadcast Television |
As with IP Video, students in broadcast classes are generally watching their class in different locations. The quiz could be recorded on the video tape. The instructor will have to formulate an "honor system" protocol for students taking the quiz at remote sites and for grading and/or gathering and transmitting the quiz back to the instructor. |

| Internet |
Course Management Software like WebCT include chat rooms with white board functionality. As students in different locations, who cannot see each other, add to a white board "discussion," there may be momentary delays before everyone can see the newest additions. As with text-based chat, the "netiquette" of taking turns in adding content to such a discussion, may have to be learned. It might be a good idea to limit white board chats to a small student groups at one time. |
| Broadcast Television |
Some people think using a white board for broadcast classes is a bit unprofessional looking for television or video viewing. Broadcast quality production can generate animated slide shows that replicate a prerecorded white board discussion. The viewing audience unable to ask about the problem solving process as it is prerecorded. |

Satellite makes it possible to have a guest lecturer from distant locations including other countries. Note that up- and downlink costs may be significant. Experienced facilitators will assist the speaker. |
| Internet |
Guest lectures require the teacher or facilitator to prepare written copy, audio, video, converted to HTML, if needed, then post on a website. |
| Broadcast Television |
Guest lecturers are prerecorded for future broadcast, viewing, or streaming. Recording a guest lecturer allows you to capture the thoughts of individual who are difficult to include in classes on a regular basis, such as a political leader or an international figure who visits Utah once, and broadcast that lecture repeatedly in the future. |

| Internet |
Similar to a text/whiteboard chat session. Each individual need access to computer and internet. Recommend small groups of 4-5 students only. Teacher acts as facilitator. |
| Broadcast Television |
Would require students to be able to contact each other, then get together. The "Town Hall" meetings used by PBS stations are a good model. Such meetings, however, are expensive to produce. Small group meetings for broadcast, video, or streamed classes happen in a face-to-face setting versus on television or broadcast. NOTE: Some telecourses tape with a small groups of students as a TV "audience" who participate in TV lectures. Students in subsequent terms cannot "participate" in the previously recorded discussions. |

Most correspondence courses are offered open enrollment: a single students works at his/her own pace to complete a course. Correspondence students are generally remotely located. Getting together as a small group may be logistically difficult. That said, a small group of students could communicate in person, by phone or email. |

| Satellite |
Since video feed is not returned on satellite, remote site could not give a presentation unless strictly audio. We have had satellite sites tape their presentations and send them here for us to show student audience. |
| Internet |
Posting presentations requires the teacher or facilitator to prepare audio or video provided by students, have it converted to HTML and then posted on a website. |
| Broadcast Television |
Broadcast TV is usually too expensive and logistically difficult for small group presentations. Would require students and instructors to get together outside of school to plan for and deliver the presentation. |
| Video Home Viewing |
Requires students and instructors to get together outside of the broadcast class. A video tape put into the VCR by a small group of students gathered together at several sites is quite effective. Students may fill out worksheets, quizzes, during the presentation, and submit these documents to the instructor. |
| Media Streaming |
Since video feed is not returned via
streaming, remote site could not give a presentation unless sites tape
their presentations and send them here for us to show student audience. |
