| Research Abstract |
Distance learning is one of the most promising methods to provide higher education with people in the world. Since 1989, the National Institute of Multimedia Education (NIME) has been conducted a series of comparative studies on universities using distance education modes in the Asian and the Pacific regions. For the first year of the research, NIME conducted field work study of the open universities in Thailand and Indonesia in 1989. Followed by this project, NIME conducted a research on distance higher education in Pakistan and India in 1990. For 1991, NIME implements similar research on the University of the South Pacific (USP).
For the distance education, local study centers such as Regional Centers play important roles to enhance students learning. Despite the importance of the study centers, we have known only a little about their actual functions and operations. Nor do we know much about differences in study centers systems in different countries. This research focuses on their role and function. By interviewing teaching and administrative staff of the Regional Centers and comparing different study centre systems, we examined functions and operations of study centers and their influences on the local societies where they are located. This research also focused on impacts of the distance higher education on socio-economic development of the Asian and Pacific countries and also on the trends of social mobility. Through interviews with students and graduates of distance higher education institutions, government staff responsible for socio-economic development, executives of local businesses, and people in Asian and pacific people studying or working in foreign countries, we explored how the distance learning program socio-economically affects their societies.
