The Seminar as an Instructional Strategy in Distance Education.
Peruniak, Geoffrey S.
British Journal of Educational Technology, v15 n2 p107-24 May 1984
Describes a study of the role of face-to-face teaching and learning in two distance education courses at Athabasca University. Concerned with effects of a seminar on adult learner success, the study addressed the questions of whether students will attend optional seminars, how distance learners perceive seminars, whether attendees perform better, and ways attendees differ from nonattendees.
