Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:
On line courses (also called distance learning) are a hot new trend in
American education. According to the nonprofit Distance Education and Training
Council, about 400 US colleges and schools offer some portion of their programs
on the We b. At the university level, they cost the same as traditional classes
and requir e similar weekly assignments and textbook reading, the difference is
in class pa rticipation.
Generally speaking, students congregate(使聚集) on line throughout each week
to explore topic with the professor, but these discussions occur “asynchronousl
y(不同时发生地)” rather than in real time. (You read others’ comments and post your
own whenever you get a chance.) Written assignments are posted, you e mail in
your work periodically, and you’re required to take a proctored exam in order to
receive degree credit. Career boosting business administration and information
technology programs are the most popular, but you’ll also find a variety of
literal arts offerings, from film theory to medieval history and foreign lang
uage study. While you still can’t get an Ivy League degree on line, a growing
number of elite(卓越的) institutions, including Stanford and New York Univer sity
are beginning to offer on line courses.
The benefits for busy people are obvious. “I always get a front row seat,”
says one student studying at the State University of New York Learning Network.
“I can get up in the middle of class, grab a cup of coffee. The class is waiting
for me when I get back, and I haven’t missed a thing.” On the other hand, some
students miss the face to face interaction that often sparks interest and
involvement.
