- Bangkok Project - Application of Electronic Communication for Distance
- Education in the Third World Topic

- First Speaker - Dr. Robin Mason
- Open University of the United Kingdom

- Dates: Oct. 12 - Nov. 30
-
- Abstract:
- This topic is intended to be a listing in addition to a discussion, and depends
- fundamentally on the contributions of those involved in third world networking
- projects.
-
- What I hope to produce at the end of the period (and this topic runs the whole
- length of the project), is as complete a dossier as possible of all known uses
- of email, computer conferencing or other remote access to support distance
- education in third world countries. Some examples will include links with
- developed countries, but it is the use made by the developing countries which
- we wish to highlight.
-
- I trust that such a list (including a brief description of the networking
- application and a contact person for further information) and the ensuing
- discussion, will be of interest to the distance education community generally.
