ABSTRACT
When new courses are developed, a decision must be made about the “delivery media and setting” for student access to the instruction. In the past, a huge variety of instructional settings and media have been used to deliver courses including (most commonly) classrooms and teachers and (most recently) multimedia transmitted via the Web and/or recorded on CD or DVD. The purpose of this chapter is to describe a relatively simple procedure for making a cost-beneficial decision between the classroom and a distance delivery platform for any one course of instruction.
