Regulations and Guidelines on Distance Education

see - http://www.cccco.edu/divisions/esed/aa_ir/disted/attachments/DEGuidelinesMar2004.doc

 

55205. Definitions and Application.

Distance education means instruction in which the instructor and student are

separated by distance and interact through the assistance of communication

technology. All distance education is subject to the general requirements of this

chapter as well as the specific requirements of this article. In addition, instruction

provided as distance education is subject to the requirements that may be

imposed by the Americans with Disabilities Act (42 U.S.C. §12100 et seq.) and

section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended, (29 U.S.C. §794d).

 

Note: Authority cited: Sections 70901 and 66700, Education Code.

Reference: Sections 70901 and 70902, Education Code.

Guideline for Section 55205

 

Board of Governors approval of DE in the system is to allow the exploration and

development of educational initiatives using advanced communication and computing

technologies to address student access issues related to geographical, cultural,

disability or facility barriers. Detailed directions for making DE courses accessible for

persons with disability are provided at the end of these guidelines.

 

A DE course/section or session is defined as the use of technology utilized 51 percent

or more of the time to deliver instruction during the course term and where the student

and instructor are separated by distance. The delivery of instruction in the DE modality

can include the use of one or a number of technologies. As an example, an instructor

can use the Internet, email video and class lecture to deliver instruction (hybrid course).

However, if the use of the combined mediated technology is 50 percent or less, or the

student and instructor are not separated by distance, the course/section/session is

considered a classroom-based traditional course/section/ session.
