From the use of the first communications satellites in the Asia-Pacific region in the 1970s for educational radio broadcasts to today's converging media on the 'Net, distance learning has expanded globally-with some countries more advanced than others. U.S. practitioners have been accused of myopia-ignoring the initiatives, effective practices and technological advances elsewhere in the world. What can one learn from the current and future efforts of campus and corporate providers outside of the US/North America? Which projects are successfully overcoming the real demise of boundaries? The demand for relevant content, real-time processes and certification courseware is exploding. This webcast discusses collaboration & convergence in International Distance Education.
