The 'e-revolution' that has swept the higher and further education sector over the last decade is now starting to make a real impact in school level teaching and learning around the world. There is a rapidly growing interest in, and demand for open and distance learning solutions for schools, not only in terms of improving access (for example, for the children of travellers, or for those in geographically remote areas) but also in terms of improving pedagogy for more 'conventional' teaching, by offering teachers, parents and pupils greater support and access to learning materials and resources.
This ground-breaking book, with contributions from around the world including the UK, US, New Zealand, Canada and India, looks at the key areas of development in this new field, provides best practice examples and inspiring case studies and will increase the awareness of the opportunities and challenges in this potentially huge field.
Jo Bradley is based at the International Extension College, UK, which specializes in developing sustainable educational initiatives in developing countries, particularly in the area of open and distance learning (ODL). Fred Lockwood is Professor of Learning and Teaching and Director of the Learning and Teaching Unit at Manchester Metropolitan University, UK.
