As fast as distance education is growing, scholarship about it is growing even faster – with predictable results:
• Distance educators’ reading load is ballooning.
• The demand for research is accelerating.
• The pressure to publish is intensifying.

If you’re a distance-education leader on your campus, you know these pressures well … and you’re undoubtedly ready for a seminar that tackles them head-on.
