This book looks at the philosophies behind the new delivery methods of education in schools, and investigates the rise in interest in new methods. A number of factors, such as issues of quality, equity, cost-effectiveness, student empowerment, as well as developments in technology have all come into play in the education field internationally. These factors have converged to provide an impetus to the development of new approaches to education. In the higher education sector open, flexible and distance learning is increasingly the norm alongside more traditional methods of delivery. These techniques are now entering the schools arena, and this authoritative book tackles the issues and opportunities in this field from a number of international standpoints, in order to draw out the implications for policy, teachers and the wider learning society.READERSHIP: Educators and educational academicsPaine, Nigel is the author of 'Distance Learning in Schools' with ISBN 9780749430900 and ISBN 0749430907.
