Distance Education Programs Preparing Personnel for Rural Areas: Current Practices, Emerging Trends, and Future Directions.
Overview & Synopsis
The use of distance education for rural personnel preparation in special education and disability services was examined in the literature on 32 programs. The programs tended to have a narrow focus on graduate education in low-incidence disabilities; needed external support due to high costs; and had demonstrated sustainability. Emerging trends are discussed. (Contains 63 references.) (TD)
