What do you think?

The 25th anniversary of this conference, hosted in 2009, offered an opportunity to reflect on where we've been and where we're going in the field of distance education. What are the challenges we face on this journey? How can this conference help us plan for the future?
At the 2008 conference we talked with participants about their views on these questions. We invite you to listen to their ideas by clicking the video images. Then add your own ideas and read those of others by clicking the Post your comments button.
