Within a context of rapid technological change and shifting market conditions, education system is challenged with providing increased educational opportunities without increased budgets. Many educational institutions are answering this challenge by developing distance education programs. At its most basic level, distance education takes place when a teacher and students are separated by physical distance, and technology is used to bridge the instructional gap.

Recently, academic institutions have been using distant education to reach a more diverse audience who have no access to traditional classroom instruction.

The communication of the subject matter is primarily to individuals rather than groups. (10) As a result, the course content must be delivered by instructional media. The media may be primarily print, as in the case of traditional correspondence course. Today, a wide variety of media are used. Audiocassettes, videotapes, video course can be sent to individual students. In addition, radio, broadcast, television, telelectures and teleconferences are used for distant education. The latter two delivery systems allow for interactive instruction between the instructor and the students.
