Guide for:Guide for:
Planning, design and implementation of any effective distance education environment should be
driven by clearly defined instructional needs and objectives, rather than by technology.
Build into facilities planning the potential for network growth, cost-effective expansion of services
and technology upgrades. This is best achieved by sticking to technology solutions that are
standards compliant that can easily be upgraded via software.
