20. B:ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURES IN DISTANCE
EDUCATION:
• Organizational structures in distance education refer to the framework, arrangement, and
distribution of roles, responsibilities, and resources within institutions offering remote
learning opportunities. These structures are essential for facilitating effective
communication, decision-making, and coordination among stakeholders involved in the
delivery of distance education programs

21. TRADITIONAL VS. DISTANCE EDUCATION:
• Online learning delivers the content through text, images, or videos, and the
students are asked to complete an online assessment or other activities. The
teaching can be set at any specific time, but there's limited interaction. On the
other hand, traditional learning has a fixed schedule and place.

22. ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURES MODELS IN
DISTANCE EDUCATION:
• Centralized Model:
• Decentralized Model:
• Hybrid Model:
• Networked Model:

23. CENTRALIZED MODEL:
• • In a centralized structure, decision-making authority and administrative
functions are concentrated at the top level of the organization.
• • There is a single administrative body responsible for overseeing all aspects
of distance education, including curriculum development, faculty hiring, and
student support services.
• • This model offers uniformity and consistency in policies and procedures but
may lack flexibility and responsiveness to local needs.

24. DECENTRALIZED MODEL:
• • In contrast, a decentralized structure distributes decision-making authority
across multiple units or departments within the organization.
• • Each unit has a degree of autonomy in managing its distance education
programs, allowing for customization and adaptation to local contexts.
• • While decentralization promotes innovation and responsiveness, it can lead
to inconsistencies and coordination challenges across units.

25. HYBRID MODEL:
• • The hybrid model combines elements of both centralized and decentralized
structures.
• • Certain functions, such as curriculum design and quality assurance, may be
centralized for efficiency and consistency, while others, like student support
services, may be decentralized to better serve diverse learner needs.
• • This model seeks to strike a balance between standardization and flexibility,
leveraging the strengths of both approaches.

26. NETWORKED MODEL:
• • The networked model involves collaboration among multiple institutions,
organizations, or stakeholders to deliver distance education programs.
• • Institutions may form partnerships or consortia to share resources,
expertise, and best practices.
• • This model fosters collaboration and resource sharing but requires effective
communication and coordination among participating entities

27. KEY COMPONENTS OF ORGANIZATIONAL
STRUCTURES:
