NETCOURSES STATA

Al contrario di un corso di formazione di tipo tradizionale, dove gli iscritti devono frequentare il corso di persona, un corso via internet si svolge completamente on-line. Gli iscritti entrano a far parte di un circuito chiuso di posta elettronica. I corsi via internet sono quindi più facilmente accessibili dal punto di vista logistica ed economica rispetta ai corsi di tipo tradizionali. Inoltre la struttura dei corsi è molto più flessibile, dato che non ci sono vincoli d’orario. Normalmente i corsi sono divisi fra alcune sessioni. All’inizio di ogni sessione, gli iscritti ricevono tutto il materiale rilevante: dispense; risposte alle domande e soluzioni dagli esercizi fatti nella sessione precedente. Fra sessioni c’è un periodo di interruzione che permette agli iscritti di: ripassare le precedenti lezioni; fare alcuni esercizi relativi alla materia dell’ultima sessione; discutere problemi/idee con gli altri partecipanti e il responsabile del corso. Alla fine del corso, il circuito di posta elettronica rimane aperto per un periodo predefinito per permettere discussioni fra i partecipanti e il responsabile.
