Abstract

Teaching continuing education and credit courses has been an important and enjoyable part of my professional life. Up until this past year all my previous teaching had been the with traditional face-to-face lecture method where students come to class, take notes, do assignments, and the instructor lectures and grades.

However, in 2002 I had the opportunity to teach the same class -- Introduction of Science and Technology Reference Sources -- simultaneously through distance education (DE) and traditionally. Over the course of both classes I kept track of my time as well as keeping notes on the differences, similarities and insights gained through this experience. This information makes up the rest of this article.
