Distance Education at ATS
Loading player...
At Auckland Park Theological Seminary, we use distance education for teaching and learning, which has many benefits. One main advantage is that students and lecturers can be in different places. This method also saves money because students don’t have to move or travel, making higher education available to more people from different backgrounds. Plus, distance learning offers flexible timetables, so students can manage their studies alongside personal and work responsibilities.
While distance education has many benefits, it also comes with some challenges. We are always working to make our teaching and learning better in this format.
Our approach combines different methods and uses the internet for support, but we mainly rely on printed materials like Reader, Study, and Assessment manuals. Online virtual classes let students and lecturers meet online, hear the lecturer’s explanation of the work, and ask questions. A few selected tests are done using online multiple-choice questions. Students must have internet access.
We enrol students twice a year, and everyone follows the same study plan.
