What is What is Distance EducationDistance Education??
• Distance education or distance learning is a field of education that focuses on teaching methods and technology with the aim of delivering teaching, often on an individual basis, to students who are not physically present in a traditional educational setting such as a classroom.
• It has been described as "a process to create and provide access to learning when the source of information and the learners are separated by time and distance, or both."

HistoryHistory and Development and Development
• Modern distance education initially relied on the development of postal services in the 19th century Isaac Pitman taught shorthand in Great Britain via correspondence in the 1840s.
• The University of London claims to be the first university to offer distance learning degrees, establishing its External Programme in 1858. This program is now known as the University of London International Programmes and includes Postgraduate, Undergraduate and Diploma degrees created by colleges such as the London School of Economics, Royal Holloway and Goldsmiths.

HistoryHistory and Development and Development
• In 1969 The Open University, which initially relied on radio and television broadcasts for much of its delivery.
• The development of computers and the internet have made distance learning distribution easier and faster and have given rise to the 'virtual university, the entire educational offerings of which are conducted online.

HistoryHistory and Development and Development
• In 1996 Jones International University was launched and claims to be the first fully online university accredited by a regional accrediting association in the US.
• Today, there are many private and public, non-profit and for-profit institutions worldwide offering distance education courses from the most basic instruction through to the highest levels of degree and doctoral programs.

AdvantagesAdvantages of Distance Learning of Distance Learning
• Distance learning does not require commuting.• Convenience: you don’t have to attend a lecture at a
particular time and place; you can review the assignments and do your homework during off-hours or from home.
• Live anywhere, study from anywhere.• Self-paced learning.• Accessibility : You don’t have to worry about
gaining access to a classroom or sitting on uncomfortable desks.

DisadvantagesDisadvantages of Distance of Distance LearningLearning
• Costly and complex technology.• Advance planning.• Hidden costs.• Distance learning does not offer immediate feedback.• Distance learning does not always offer all the necessary
courses online.• Distance learning may not be acknowledged by all employers.• Distance learning does not give students the opportunity to
work on oral communication skills.• Social isolation.
