Description
In response to the changing landscape in higher education, learner preferences and the pervasiveness of technology in our lives, many organizations and educational institutions are providing learning opportunities at a distance. Technological innovations are increasingly being integrated in the learning environment to provide workers with the training opportunities they need to be effective and efficient. With the Internet and digital technologies' rapid growth, the Web has become a powerful, global, interactive, dynamic, economic and an autonomous medium of learning and teaching at a distance (Khan, 2005). The Internet provides an opportunity to develop on-demand learning and learner-centered instruction and training. Therefore, distance learning is increasingly becoming a preferred means for individuals to gain access to education and job preparation opportunities; this meets the public's learning needs and that of an ever-changing workforce.
