Collaboration in distance education: From local to international perspectives
Liz Thach, Karen L. Murphy · American Journal of Distance Education · 1994
This article explores the various levels of collaboration found within distance education contexts. A continuum reflecting the local to international levels of collaboration is outlined; descriptions of the components found along the continuum are provided, and the implications for change in higher education institutions engaged in distance education are explored. Necessary modifications in structure, policies, reward systems, and instructional skills are identified and discussed.
