填空题Distance Education 远程教育 What is Distance Education? Within a context of rapid technological change and shifting market conditions, the American education system is challenged with providing increased educational opportunities without increased budgets. Many educational institutions are answering this challenge by developing distance education programs. At its most basic level, distance education takes place when a teacher and student(s) are separated by physical distance, and technology (i. e. voice, video, data, and print), often in concert with face-to-face communication, is used to bridge the instructional gap. These types of programs can provide adults with a second chance at a college education, reach those disadvantaged by limited time, distance or physical disability, and update the knowledge base of workers at their places of employment. Is Distance Education Effective? Many educators ask if distant students learn as much as students receiving traditional face-to-face instruction. Research comparing distance education to traditional face-to-face instruction indicates that teaching and studying at a distance can be as effective as traditional instruction, when the method and technologies used are appropriate to the instructional tasks, where there is student-to-student interaction, and when there is timely teacher-to-student feedback. How is Distance Education Delivered? A wide range of technological options are available to the distance educator. They fall into four major categories: Voice-Instructional audio tools include the interactive technologies of telephone, audioconferencing, and short-wave radio. Passive (i. e. one-way) audio tools include tapes and radio. Video-Instructional video tools include still images such as slides, pre-produced moving images (e. g. film, videotape), and real-time moving images combined with audioconferencing (one-way or two-way video with two-way audio). Data-Computers send and receive information electronically. For this reason, the term data is used to describe this broad category of instructional tools. Computer applications for distance education are varied and include. Computer-assisted instruction (CAI) uses the computer as a self-contained teaching machine to present individual lessons. Computer-managed instruction (CMI)-uses the computer to organize instruction and track student records and progress. The instruction itself need not be delivered via a computer, although CAI is often combined with CMI. Computer-mediated education (CME) describes computer applications that facilitate the delivery of instruction. Examples include electronic mail, fax, real-time computer conferencing, and World Wide Web applications. Print is a foundational element of distance education programs and the basis from which all other delivery systems have evolved. Various print formats are available including: textbooks, study guides, workbooks, course syllabi, and case studies. Which Technology is Best? Although technology plays a key role in the delivery of distance education, educators must remain focused on instructional outcomes, not the technology of delivery. The key to effective distance education is focusing on the needs of the learners, the requirements of the content, and the constraints faced by the teacher, before selecting a delivery system. Typically, this systematic approach will result in a mix of media, each serving a specific purpose. For example: A strong print component can provide much of the basic instructional content in the form of a course text, as well as readings, the syllabus, and day-to-day schedule. Interactive audio or video conferencing can provide real time face-to-face (or voice-to-voice) interaction. This is also an excellent and cost-effective way to incorporate guest speakers and content experts. Computer conferencing or electronic mail can be used to send messages, assignment feedback, and other targeted communication to one or more class members. It can also be used to increase interaction among students. Pre-recorded video tapes can be used to present class lectures and visually oriented content. Fax can be used to distribute assignments, last minute announcements, to receive student assignments, and to provide timely feedback. Using this integrated approach, the educators task is to carefully select among the technological options. The goal is to build a mix of instructional media, meeting the needs of the learner in a manner that is instructionally effective and economically prudent. Effective Distance Education Without exception, effective distance education programs begin with careful planning and a focused understanding of course requirements and student needs. Appropriate technology can only be selected once these elements are understood in detail. There is no mystery to the way effective distance education programs develop. They dont happen spontaneously; they evolve through the hard work and dedicated efforts of many individuals and organizations. In fact, successful distance education programs rely on the consistent and integrated efforts of students, faculty, facilitators, support staff, and administrators. Key Players in Distance Education Students—Meeting the instructional needs of students is the cornerstone of every effective distance education program, and the test by which all efforts in the field are judged. Regardless of the educational context, the primary role of the student is to learn. This is a daunting task under the best of circumstances, requiring motivation, planning, and an ability to analyze and apply the instructional content being taught. When instruction is delivered at a distance, additional challenges result because students are often separated from others sharing their backgrounds and interests, have few if any opportunities to interact with teachers outside of class, and must rely on technical linkages to bridge the gap separating class participants. Faculty—The success of any distance education effort rests squarely on the shoulders of the faculty. In a traditional classroom setting, the instructors responsibility includes assembling course content and developing an understanding of student needs. Special challenges confront those teaching at a distance. For example, the instructor must. 1) Develop an understanding of the characteristics and needs of distant students with little first-hand experience and limited, if any, face-to-face contact. 2) Adapt teaching styles taking into consideration the needs and expectations of multiple, often diverse, audiences. 3) Develop a working understanding of delivery technology, while remaining focused on their teaching role. 4) Function effectively as a skilled facilitator as well as content provider. Facilitators—The instructor often finds it beneficial to rely on a site facilitator to act as a bridge between the students and the instructor. To be effective, a facilitator must understand the students being served and the instructors expectations. Most importantly, the facilitator must be willing to follow the directive established by the teacher. Where budget and logistics permit, the role of on-site facilitators has increased even in classes in which they have little, if any, content expertise. At a minimum, they set up equipment, collect assignments, proctor tests, and act as the instructors on-site eyes and ears. Support Staff—These individuals are the silent heroes of the distance education enterprise and ensure that the myriad details required for program success are dealt with effectively. Most successful distance education programs consolidate support service functions to include student registration, materials duplication and distribution, textbook ordeing, securing of copyright clearances, facilities scheduling, processing grade reports, managing technical resources, etc. Support personnel are truly the glue that keeps the distance education effort together and on track. Administrators—Although administrators are typically influential in planning an institutions distance education program, they often lose contact or give up control to technical managers once the program is operational. Effective distance education administrators are more than idea people. They are consensus builders, decision makers, and referees. They work closely with technical and support service personnel, ensuring that technological resources are effectively distributed to further the institutions academic mission. Most importantly, they maintain an academic focus, realizing that meeting the instructional needs of distant students is their ultimate responsibility. The Need for Instructional Development—Instructional development provides a process and framework for systematically planning, developing, and adapting instruction based on identifiable learner needs and content requirements. This process is essential in distance education, where the instructor and students may share limited common background and typically have minimal face-to-face contact. Although instructional development models and processes abound, the majority follow the same basic stages of design, development, evaluation, and revision. The Instructional Development Process should help us be able to. Determine the need for instruction—Analyze your audience—Establish instructional goals/objectives—Create a content outline—Review existing materials—Organize and develop content—Select/develop materials and methods—Review goals and objectives—Collect and analyze evaluation data—Revise and improve. Conclusion While it is possible, even appropriate on occasion, to shorten the instructional development process, it should be done only after considering the needs of the learner, the requirements of the content, and the constraints facing both teacher and students. Adhering to sound principles of instructional development wont overcome all obstacles one encountered en route to developing effective distance education programs. It will, however, provide a process and procedural framework for addressing the instructional challenges that will surely arise.

填空题Even if we could make it impossible for people to commit crimes,
should we? Or would doing so improperly deprive people of their
freedom? This may sound like a fanciful concern, but it is an
increasingly real one. The new federal transportation bill, for example,
authorized funding for a program that seeks to prevent the crime of drunken
driving not by raising public consciousness or issuing stiffer punishments — but
by making the crime practically impossible to commit. {{U}} 1
{{/U}}______ The Dadss program is part of a trend toward what I
call the "perfect prevention" of crime: depriving people of the choice to commit
an offense in the first place. The federal government's Intelligent
Transportation Systems program, which is creating technology to share data among
vehicles and road infrastructure like traffic lights, could make it impossible
for a driver to speed or run a red light. {{U}} 2 {{/U}}______
Such technologies force us to reconcile two important interests. On one
hand is society's desire for safety and security. On the other hand is the
individual's right to act freely. Conventional crime prevention balances these
interests by allowing individuals the freedom to commit crime, but punishing
them if they do. The perfect prevention of crime asks us to
consider exactly how far individual freedom extends. Does freedom include a
"right" to drive drunk, for instance? It is hard to imagine that it does.
{{U}} 3 {{/U}}______ For most familiar crimes (murder,
robbery, rape, arson), the law requires that the actor have some guilty state of
mind, whether it is intent, recklessness or negligence.
{{U}} 4 {{/U}}______ In such cases, using technology to
prevent the crime entirely would not unduly burden individual freedom ; it would
simply be effective enforcement of the statute. Because there is no mental state
required to be guilty of the offense, the government could require, for
instance, that drug manufacturers apply a special tamper-proof coating to all
pills, thus making the sale of tainted drugs practically impossible, without
intruding on the thoughts of any future seller. But because the
government must not intrude on people's thoughts, perfect prevention is a bad
fit for most offenses. {{U}} 5 {{/U}}______ Even if this could be known,
perhaps with the help of some sort of neurological scan, collecting such
knowledge would violate an individual's freedom of thought.
Perfect prevention is a politically attractive approach to crime prevention, and
for strict liability crimes it is permissible and may be good policy if
implemented properly. But for most offenses, the threat to individual freedom is
too great to justify this approach. This is not because people have a right to
commit crimes; they do not. Rather, perfect prevention threatens our right to be
free in our thoughts, even when those thoughts turn to crime.
[A] But there is a category of crimes that are forbidden regardless of the
actor's state of mind: so-called strict-liability offenses. One example is the
sale of tainted drugs. Another is drunken driving. [B] The
Dadss program, despite its effectiveness in preventing drunk driving, is
criticized as a violation of human rights because it monitors drivers' behavior
and controls individual's free will. [C] And the Digital
Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 has already criminalized the development of
technologies that can be used to avoid copyright restrictions, making it
effectively impossible for most people to illegally share certain copyrighted
materials, including video games. [D] If the actor doesn't have
the guilty state of mind, and he commits crime involuntarily, in this case, the
actor will be convicted as innocent. [E] Perfect prevention of
a crime like murder would require the ability to know what a person was thinking
in order to determine whether he possessed the relevant culpable mental
state. [F] The program, the Driver Alcohol Detection System for
Safety (Dadss), is developing in vehicle technology that automatically checks a
driver's blood-alcohol level and, if that level is above the legal limit,
prevents the car from starting. [G] But what if the government
were to add a drug to the water supply that suppressed antisocial urges and
thereby reduced the murder rate? This would seem like an obvious violation of
our freedom. We need a clear method of distinguishing such cases.
