Distance education is arguably one of the major developments in
education during the 20th Century. From schooling through to
university education, distance education blossomed to facilitate
frontier expansion in the New World, capacity-building in
developing nations, access and equity provision in post-War
societies and flexible professional development and workplace
training for late-modernity. "The International Handbook of
Distance Education" explores the array of distance education
theories and practices as they have been shaped by the late-20th
Century and then positions these in terms of the contemporary
circumstances of the 21st Century. The "Handbook' is intended to be
a comprehensive reference work for practitioners, researchers and
administrators engaged in forms of distance education in private
and public education, from schooling through undergraduate and
postgraduate coursework to doctoral research programs. A critical
thread runs throughout the "Handbook" to provide the reader with
stimulation to critique policy and practice with a view to being
creative and responsive in their own policy development and
educational work. It discusses lifelong and flexible learning
environments.
