Distance Education: Sizing the opportunity

Michael Simonson

Research output: Contribution to journal › Editorial › peer-review

Abstract

Distance educators are often asked about the quality and extent of online education in the US. Many, especially new students, want to know if instruction delivered at a distance is of high quality, and if distance education is a passing fad, or a viable approach to teaching and learning. Simonson details the Sloan Consortium's Sizing the Opportunity: The Quality and Extent of Online Education in the United States, 2002 and 2003, which contains a wealth of information about the field of distance education in general, and about online instruction more specifically.
