Has Distance Learning Become More Flexible? Reflections of a Distance Learning Student
This paper provides insight into the way in which distance learning had changed over the past 30 years from the perspective of the author as a distance learning student. The question is then asked as to whether current practice is reducing flexibility for distance learning students? The paper starts with a discussion of flexible learning and the different factors that need to be considered when...
متن کاملReflections on student support in open and distance learning
This is a very interesting moment to reflect on Student Support in Open and Distance Learning (ODL). After some 10 years of the radical intrusion of a range of technologies, principally those grouped around what has been broadly termed ICT, we have the chance to see if and how the world of ODL has qualitatively changed. I suggest that those of us who began our careers more than a decade ago are...

On this basis the independence of the learner is one of the fundamental concepts of remote education system. The aim ...
متن کاملDefining quality student feedback in distance learning.
The quality of student feedback is of critical importance in distance learning. Students studying such courses may be geographically far removed from tutors, and limited contact opportunities necessitate a sharp and accurate focus upon aspects of study which link theory, research, clinical practice and written assessment closely together. An understanding of quality feedback begins with an appr...
متن کاملPreventing Student Dropout in Distance Learning Using Machine Learning Techniques
Student dropout occurs quite often in universities providing distance education. The scope of this research is to study whether the usage of machine learning techniques can be useful in dealing with this problem. Subsequently, an attempt was made to identifying the most appropriate learning algorithm for the prediction of students' dropout. A number of experiments have taken place with data pro...
