Postgraduate Master's degrees in the United Kingdom can either be ***taught degrees*** involving lectures, examination and a short dissertation, or research degrees (though the latter have largely been replaced by MPhil and MRes programmes, see below). Taught Master's programmes involve 1 or 2 years of full-time study. The programmes are often very intensive and demanding, and concentrate on one very specialised area of knowledge.

The term implies that the course is imparted not through distance learning, but in a classroom, with a teacher or tutor, hence the active sense of the meaning of the word taught. This is a term/system used mostly in the UK, I beleive.

The distinction is not with distance learning It's between whether the award is based purely on a research thesis or is primarily by coursework+examination.
