In addition, the O-Tutorial model uses occasional face-to-face meetings in addition to the online.

Academagogy allows the teacher to select the methods and techniques that will work best for the specific cohort of students before them. Allowing students to ‘construct’ their own learning can give the student the confidence as an independent thinker, and the ability to create the connections leading to new thought processes.
