Resumen de Learning from Tapes:: the Experience of Home‐based Students
Over the last decade audio‐tapes have become increasingly used in teaching external students in university courses. This paper examines the use that external students make of audio‐tapes. Students who have a natural preference for obtaining information by listening feel that tapes are effective as sources of information as well as being effective in stimulating their work and maintaining their morale. Students who prefer to use written sources of information rather than tapes nevertheless feel that tapes fulfil a valuable role.
