Knowledge, Learning, Community
The spring, 2005, edition of the Online Journal of Distance Learning Administration is now available. I list three papers, beginning with this one. Good overview of some articles in this topic highlighted by a chart added as an appendix, though I wish the author had surveyed more papers and reports (thirteen are surveyed). Though the papers are surveyed are all over the map (which raises questions about methodology, since presumably they are studying the same subject) they cluster around two major points: lack of technological support, and lack of time. Of course, I phrase these differently: a need for better technology, and a need for a more efficient design and delivery process.
