Question

This chapter addressed computer-delivered training.  Let’s discuss the pros and cons of that method, as opposed to face to face traditional training.

(Of course, all of you taking this course have distance learning and traditional classroom experiences to compare, but as schedule flexibility is usually cited as one of the main advantages to e-learning, and most of us have prescribed schedules at work, that probably is not applicable to this discussion.)

What work-related tasks do you think would be appropriate to be delivered electronically, and what types do you feel would be better delivered in a more traditional setting?  Please feel free to use any real life examples (keeping specific anonymous) you might have encountered, and be sure to follow the guidelines.
