Abstract

Distance education programs in the form of online instruction continue to grow in terms of enrollments as well as courses available. However, consideration of the values promoted by ideal distance and open learning systems may not be guiding the design and development of such programs. The values of access, availability, affordability, continuity, connection, independence equity can form the basis for a conversation on how a program is realizing the promise of distance education given the constraints of institutional mission, culture, and business/academic model.
