	Distance education - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Distance education, or distance learning, is a field of education that focuses on the pedagogy/andragogy, technology, and instructional systems design that are effectively incorporated in delivering education to students who are not physically "on site" to receive their education.
		Distance education courses that require a physical on-site presence for any reason including the taking of examinations is considered to be a hybrid or blended course or program.
		In short then, though a range of technology presupposes a distance education 'inventory' it is technological appropriateness and connectivity, such as computer, or for that matter electrical connectivity that should be considered, when we think of the world as a whole, while fitting in technological applications to distance education.

	Distance Education at a Glance - Guide 1
		At its most basic level, distance education takes place when a teacher and student(s) are separated by physical distance, and technology (i.e., voice, video, data, and print), often in concert with face-to-face communication, is used to bridge the instructional gap.
		The key to effective distance education is focusing on the needs of the learners, the requirements of the content, and the constraints faced by the teacher, before selecting a delivery system.
		When instruction is delivered at a distance, additional challenges result because students are often separated from others sharing their backgrounds and interests, have few if any opportunities to interact with teachers outside of class, and must rely on technical linkages to bridge the gap separating class participants.

	Distance Education Primer
		Distance education can be used in any environment where people need improved access to information, have a need to share resources, or where learners, teachers, administrators and subject matter specialists must travel to distant locations in order to communicate with one another.
		Today, distance education is likely to use a combination of instructional tools and mediums, such as audio, computer and video conferencing, electronic and voice mail, multi-media (computer based and controlled), traditional media which includes audio and video tapes, slides, overheads and handwritten graphics, print support and faxing.
		In distance learning, e-mail is frequently used as a tool for students and instructors to "discuss" lessons and to communicate on all types of issues.

	Models of Distance Education - Overview
		The term distance education represents a variety of educational models that have in common the physical separation of the faculty member and some or all of the students.
		As with all types of education, the various distance education models are built around the central components of the instructional process: presentation of content; interaction with faculty, peers, and resources; practical application; and assessment.
		In distance education, it is essential that faculty and administrators work together to think creatively about how to accomplish the educational objectives when students may not have ready access to all the campus-based resources.
