Synopsis :

• This book is appropriate for any distance learning course or any course on technology where on-line learning is covered.

From defining distance learning to overcoming personal barriers to success in distance learning, this book deals with each and every issue students of any age, stage or situation are likely to encounter. Once a student's first DL class is over, this book will remain a valuable reference for all other choices and options for the continuing DL student.
