Wearing Four Pairs of Shoes: The Roles of E-Learning Facilitators – 2002 – ASTD
n this model, an e-learning facilitator “wears four pairs of shoes”–acting as instructor, social director, program manager, and technical assistant.

But e-learning’s use doesn’t preclude facilitators’ responsibilities for structuring learning experiences. The effectiveness and success of e-learning programs are dependent on facilitators’ roles in delivering and managing instruction.
