Focus: Technologies' ability to support distributed education offers campus decision-makers a particularly difficult set of choices. While technology provides the capability to DELIVER academic programs at-a-distance, its pervasiveness and ease-of-use do not singularly justify a commitment of scarce institutional resources. That an institution CAN buy and use technology, does not mean that it SHOULD significantly invest in and suffer those opportunity costs inherent in the SUCCESSFUL practice of Distributed Education in a consumer-driven economic environment. This thread's focus attends to interests and concerns of distributed education practitioners, academic administrators, and those concerned with answering WHY DO IT rather than HOW TO DO IT questions. Articles will attend to: institutional cultures and their impact on Distributed Education practice, definers and definitions of quality, best practices, business planning, marketing, and return-on-institutional-investment. They will challenge individuals and test current practices with regard to client -centered values, tools measuring the degree to which quality is met, and systemic incentives/ disincentives that impact satisfaction, commitment and attrition. Who May Submit: Submissions are sought from students and stakeholders such as employers, unions, and worker associations and from administrators (CAO’s CIO's, CFO's) at for- and not-for-profit academic providers. Employees of distributed education technology manufacturers and out-sourcing contractors are urged to submit. Individuals associated with regional higher education accrediting agencies (such as the Southern Association for Colleges and Schools), state higher education governing boards, and professional program overseers (such as the Accrediting Board for Engineering and Technology or the American Association for Collegiate Schools of Business) are also encouraged. Members of academic associations (such as the National University Continuing Education Association, the Council on Experiential and Adult Education, and US/state Distance Learning Associations) and representatives from national higher education organizations such as the American Council on Education are encouraged to submit. Faculty experienced in the field are especially urged to contribute as are military students and their stakeholders. Individuals skilled in blending technologies to integrate course delivery and student services are also encouraged.
