Face to face / web based learning

I have been reading and thinking about the differences between delivering face-to-face and online delivery. I have put some of my ideas in the following table.

Any other ideas???

Face to face learning environment	Web based delivery
Engaging learners with quality materials
Physical presence of teacher	Needs to be able to compensate for the lack of physical presence in the virtual classroom by creating a supportive environment where all learners feel comfortable participating and where learners know that their teacher is accessible.
Largely based on high level of oral communication skills	High level of written and verbal communication skills for communication.
Values critical thinking in the learning process.
Text based resources	Digital resources come in many forms and include content-free resources, such as software applications and communication tools, and content-rich resources. Content-rich resources provide a clear learning intention as well as an engaging learning experience, immersion in a context, and a benchmark for learners' own work. Learners can view from a variety of resources to reinforce their own learning. Learners have control when and if they access the digital resources.
	Provide opportunities for learners to control their own learning to become independent learners.
Creating learning situations	Designing environments that engage learners
	Requiring learners to construct knowledge in a way which is most meaningful to them
No flexibility for learners when they learn – lessons are provided at a given time	Provide flexibility for learners when they learn
No flexibility for learners where they learn – in face-to-face situations	Provide flexibility for learners where they learn
Synchronous discussion only not allowing for time to reflect before sharing ideas	Design ways for learners to add to asynchronous learning allowing the learner to read, reflect, write, revise if wanting to before sharing ideas with colleagues
	Act as moderator to organise, plan, establish and maintain relationships by guiding and developing discussion
Provide intellectual stimulation
	Encourage participation
	Design opportunities for purposeful interactivity which is engaging and stimulating
Imparts knowledge and skills to learners	Provides guidance and support to learners
	Provides scaffolding to ensure learner success during self-directed learning
