[4] Web Metamorphosis Models
The goal for the parallel model is to make a one-to-one transference of what occurs in the pedagogical design of the classroom to the web-based VLE. In this case, if the teaching strategy has a lecture and seminar once a week, the same would occur online. Of course, the online advantage is there would be no time constraint if the lecture content and the seminar discussion were done asynchronously. Difficulty arises when there is not a direct match between the 'live' instructional event and a corresponding online tool to simulate the process. For example, a web-cast presentation is restricted to a static single speaker. A moving group, such as a sports event, would need more sophisticated equipment and a production crew.
