Gunawardena's Remarks On Distance Learning, Thesis

Also, as independent distance educators, these highly successful distance professors will be able to offer their services to a wider range of students. The wider range of students could expand globally, taking advantage of the emerging global community. The educator's fears that the cultural limitations of a student receiving distance learning in a setting that is not traditional, and the concern as to the communication problems arising out of that setting, are, again, based in fear of the unknown. The educator, whose reputation for success and achieving outstanding performance with students on a distance learning course, should put aside fears of communication gaps, because it will be incumbent upon the student to resolve those problems, and the centers through which the distance taught course is offered will be ultimately responsible for working with the student to resolve any communication...

A course offered from a major U.S. university or college can be offered in New Dehli, with an instructor whose first language is the same as the student's, but whose credentials for instruction meet the U.S. university's requirements.
What distance learning ultimate comes down to, is a greater, wider audience, and is a reflection of the emerging global community. Soon, by virtue of distance learning through America centers of academic excellence, students around the world will have access to the best educators, programs, and receive degrees accordingly without having to leave their own country.
