Flexible design for the future of distance learning

This study examines various design strategies which can be used in distance learning. Today, learning-teaching theories emphasize ‘learning’ so distance education has been affected and ‘distance learning’ concept has begun widely used. Distance learning has included different emerging media such as computer, intranet and internet because of rapid change and widespread use of technology. Electronic learning environments allow learners to access information from anywhere and anytime. Nowadays, this change means accessing information from everywhere and every time with become widely available of mobile devices. As the results of these changes, we need to blend various learning environments to design the future of distance learning in which learners can decide what to learn, where and how to learn in respect of their request and individual differences.
