Availability unrestricted

Abstract
Transactional Distance is the emotional dissociation felt by a student or teacher in the classroom setting. With the advent of new technology, allowing for a new class of learning, the transactional distance between the student and teacher in a web based learning environment was measured in this IQP, in order to prepare for future reformations of the virtual classroom. This measurement thus answered the goal question: does a large amount of transactional distance obstruct one's learning ability?
