Distance education is becoming more abundant, thereby increasing the need for effective course-management systems and teaching strategies that utilize technology.
Many trends in higher education will influence the future of distance learning. Student enrollments are growing to surpass the capacity of traditional infrastructures, learner profiles are changing, students are shopping for educational experiences that meet their schedules and circumstances, and higher education outsourcing and partnerships are increasing.
