Diane,
Many traditional classes do incorporate online activities and tools. For example, many instructors use the CMS with traditional classes just to manage the assignments, submissions, and grading. Many teach blended/hybrid classes that try to blend the best of online and traditional. A newer model, the "flipped" classroom moves most of the knowledge content and assignments to an online format, leaving the traditional classroom time for more in-depth discussions and interactions.
