Title
Distance learning in gerontological education: results and implications of a national survey
Abstract
This article reports data collected from a national survey of the Association for Gerontology in Higher Education’s (AGHE) member institutions conducted in 1998. The purpose was to explore current usage of distance learning in gerontological education. The findings suggest that distance learning is being implemented within various programs throughout the country with many others showing an interest. The strengths and limitations of using distance learning in gerontological education are discussed. [Article copies available for a fee from The Haworth Document Delivery Service: 1-800-342-9678.
