Publisher Description: A 'first' for all educators and trainers who are finding that they need to offer support to their distance and open learning students and trainees, this new guide offers both a sound theoretical framework and detailed practical help. It considers the need for support felt by students working within such new learning situations and examines the delivery options that are available (both in one-to-one and group learning). The book advises on the organization of support in a variety of contexts, noting what problems and barriers may exist, and discusses quality assurance and standards. |
