Abstract
[...] in a distance-delivered course, instructors do not attend a traditional class - there often is no formal class, especially in an asynchronous course. [...] instructor time can be reallocated from presenting to preparing, from lecturing to posting, and from explaining to interacting. [...] for an experienced instructor, teaching an online course that he or she has taught several times, there is a potential saving of about 30 hours for a typical three-credit college course.
