Distance education, for long the Cinderella of the educational
spectrum, had emerged in the 1970s and early 1980s as a valued
component of many national educational systems in both developed
and developing countries. The foundation of the Open Universities,
developments in communications technology and in audio-, video- and
computer-based learning, a new sophistication in the design of
print-based materials and better support systems for the student
learning at a distance had all contributed to the availability and
quality of distance education programmes. Originally published in
1988, this book chronicles this great change in distance education.
It presents the best writings on the subject published during the
previous ten years. The articles selected for this volume provided
a new scholarly basis for the theory and practice of distance
education. The editors have brought together contributions from
many countries and present authoritative introductions to each of
the nine sections. This book provided those in both developed and
developing countries with a guideline to one of the most rapidly
expanding areas of education at the time.
