Learner Support in Open, Distance and Online Learning Environments.
(+ DVD-Video).

In this volume, active practitioners and leading authors discuss their ideas, research, and approaches in order to provide both those new to the field and experienced distance educators with a broad view of learner support concepts, practices, and opportunities in open, distance, and online learning today. The book has four major sections: (I) visions and retrospectives: broad views of the history and future of learner support; (II) strategies for success: an examination of practice in a variety of contexts; (III) planning and management: issues and evolving practice; and (IV) keynote addresses: voices from leaders on vision, values, management, and research. The DVD which accompanies this book features the original recordings of all keynote speeches given at the 3rd EDEN Research Workshop.
