Discussion Forum 5

In this forum, we would like to gauge your appreciation of the distinctive roles of the tutor in the open distance and online learning environments.

We would like you to compare this with your responsibilities at present and comment on the similarities or differences.

To help you, answer to the following in about 250 words:

1. What are the differences between an online tutor and that of traditional ODL?

2. Discuss the responsibilities of an online tutor within the course?

3. How do these compare with the responsibilities you have been undertaking in your course, or the practice in your institution?

Feel free to comment on at least one participant's post.
This discussion is to gauge your learning and is not graded.
