Electronic distance study represents a novel and growing
instructional environment for adult students. ""Alone But
Together"" centres on the student experience with distance courses
offered through electronic communications. After introducing
conceptually the online mode of distance study in higher education,
it describes a range of adult distance students, the context at
home or at work in which they study, and their perceptions of the
various aspects of the ""electronic seminar"" such as
interactivity, textual ambiguity, pacing, asynchronicity, and
collaboration. Additional chapters examine learning approaches, the
dynamics and functions of online relationships, and the role of
computer communication technologies. Finally, the book presents a
model for understanding distance students' experiences with
computer conferencing and discusses how this can improve course
design, facilitation and administration. The model it presents of
how students engage in online distance study should be valuable for
educators, administrators and instructional designers who wish to
implement this type of instructional technology.
