Technology: enriching instruction and learner interactivityThe tools and media support the learning objectives of the course and are integrated with texts and lesson assignments. The tools and media enhance student interactivity and guide the student to become a more active learner. Technologies required for this course are either provided or easily downloadable. The tools and media are compatible with existing standards of delivery modes. Instructions on how to access resources at a distance are sufficient and easy to understand. Course technologies take advantage of existing economies and efficiencies of delivery.
