Abstract
There is a growing awareness of the important role of open and distance learning in higher education. This awareness has opened the debate around various issues addressed in this text. Where open and distance learning was once seen as an experimental alternative to traditional delivery, new technologies have now made it much more than an experiment. Open and distance learning has grown into a higher education industry on its own and has become one of the main pathways to global education.
