Abstract

This paper explores the nature and scope of web based teaching. It notes that the use of Web technology in the educational environment is transforming the nature of the delivery channels and teaching relationships. Furthermore, we are witnessing an emergence of radically different instructor ethics. The argument is conducted by evaluating the web based teaching initiatives at a university in Hong Kong. We have adapted the framework proposed by Vepsælæinen and Mækelin (1987) to interpret various aspects of delivering teaching materials and student-teacher relationships.
