The Distance Learning Issues List
Many of our colleagues worldwide are involved in Distance Learning courses as students, course facilitators, managers, designers, researchers, and tutors so we have recently created this list to support the discussion of issues pertaining to Distance Learning. The main aim of this list is support rather than discussion. If you are thinking of doing a DL course, post a message to find out about others' experiences. If you are doing a course and need to vent your frustrations or need motivation and encouragement, or circulate a research questionnaire, or just need to find a relevant book, article or link, post a message to the forum. If you have finished a DL course, please contribute by letting others benefit from your experiences, advice and solutions. For those researching DL issues, send your questions, results or investigations to the list to get data for your article, paper or dissertation. We also welcome input from those involved in course management, leadership and design to help members understand better the issues involved in setting up DL courses - and feedback from this list could potentially impact upon the design and set up of future DL courses.
