Transactional Distance | |||
The concept of transaction is derived from Dewey as explained by Boyd and Apps (1980: 5) it 'connotes the interplay among the environment, the individuals and the patterns of behaviors in a situation'. The transaction that we call distance education occurs between teachers and learners in an environment having the special characteristic of separation of teachers from learners. This separation leads to special patterns of learner and teacher behaviors. It is the separation of learners and teachers that profoundly affects both teaching and learning. With separation there is a psychological and communications space to be crossed, a space of potential misunderstanding between the inputs of instructor and those of the learner. It is this psychological and communications space that is the transactional distance. | |||
