Produktbeschreibung

Open and Distance Learning has thrived on the basis of two revolutions: the trend for lifelong learning for all; and the new technology that now delivers learning opportunities into homes, schools and colleges. This book evaluates the success of ODL and how it is working in the new climate of globalization as well as how its outcomes compare with those of conventional education. "Policy Issues for Open and Distance Learning" analyses and guides policy for ODL at all levels of education, providing an indispensable guide for policy makers and decision makers in this area.
