Distance education has become popular during the last decades. It covers needs of individuals, the public and private sectors, and the society in general. Generally speaking, research studies have shown that distance education provides advantages. However, problems or difficulties have also been pointed out in various research studies. Therefore, it is useful to determine the requirements that would enhance the offered advantages of distance education and/or decrease the reported problems or difficulties. The determination of such requirements would provide guidelines for the successful implementation of distance education programs. This is the subject of the chapter. The discussed requirements cover all aspects of distance education such as the education institution, the program of studies, the content, the e-learning platform, learners, tutors, and the development of relations. |
