Question 23

What do the different modes of learning - Contact, Online, and Distance - mean?

Accepted Answer

Contact ModeContact refers to programmes involving face-to-face or personal interaction with teachers or supervisors, through lectures, tutorials, seminars, practicals, supervision, or other forms of required work, which occurs at the institution’s premises or at a site of delivery of the institution (CHE, 2022). All teaching and learning (TLA) is facilitated and designed for face-to-face interaction on campus and generally follows a conventional timetable. This is also known as in-person, face-to-face or on-site teaching, as the educator and students are in the same physical space at the same time. Contact mode includes all learning environments and activities such as lectures, seminars, fieldwork, laboratories, and tutorials.OnlineOnline learning refers to a mode of instruction in which students receive programme materials and interact with instructors and peers in a digitally mediated context or learner management system (LMS), typically via the Internet (adapted from Dung et al., 2023). All learning, teaching and assessment are designed for and happen fully online. Activities are intentionally designed for online and offered synchronously (at the same time) and/or asynchronously (in own time). Online learning may include limited non-compulsory contact time for particular activities (such as study groups) and/or venue-based final assessment.Distance ModeDistance, as a mode of provision, is defined by the Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET) as the interaction with institutional teachers or supervisors which is undertaken through distance education techniques such as correspondence, telematics, learning support centres or the internet. The Distance Education (DE) Policy acknowledges continua of pedagogy and modes and does not consider online as essential to distance education (DHET, 2014). DE is based primarily on a set of teaching and learning strategies (or educational methods) that can be used to overcome spatial and/or transactional distance between educators and students. It avoids the need for students to discover the curriculum by attending classes frequently and for long periods. Rather, it aims to create a quality learning environment using an appropriate combination of different media, tutorial support, peer group discussion, and practical sessions. Institutions opting for distance education as a mode of delivery need to establish systems and processes for decentralised distribution of learning resources, communications, student and learning support, as well as formative and summative assessment. The term’ distance education’ as a mode of provision therefore refers to provision in which students spend 30% or less of the stated Notional Learning hours in undergraduate programmes at NQF Levels 5 and 6, and 25% or less in programmes at NQF Level 7 and initial post-graduate programmes at NQF Level 8, in staff-led, face-to-face, campus-based structured learning activities (DHET, 2014).
