Should Tutoring Services Be Added To Our High-Enrolling Distance Education Courses?


Just look at this article, by Peter B. Williams, Scott L. Howell, R. Dwight Laws and Emily Metheny, appears in the Winter 2006 edition of The Online Journal of Distance Learning Administration:

Increasingly, programs are responding to these competing interests by appending ancillary resources to course materials and textbooks and by using computer-mediated communication (CMC) tools, e.g., e-mail, online bulletin and discussion boards, blogs, interactive television, and computer conferencing.
