How long has distance education been available for students???
Romeo (2001) talks about correspondance courses being available since the 1800s. Romeo, L. (2001). Asynchronous environment for teaching and learning: Literacy trends and issues online. The Delta Kappa Gamma Bulletin, 6(3), 24-28. It is amazing to realise it has been around for over 100 years. Think of all the changes in delivery during that time - distance education, flexible learning, and now online learning allowing for an asynchronous learning environment where students can choose their own time and place for learning.

eLearning in educational settings
"Flexible learning" according to the Australian Learning Flexible Learning Frameworks web site give people the choice to make decisions about when, how, in what order, for how long and where they will study.
Many institutions now offer only online learning courses for some of the professional development courses which are offered to teachers. Should this be the only form of delivery?
