| How are distance teaching programs managed and administered by different types of
distance education providers? There are four main types of distance education providers:
- Single-mode institutions, where the management's sole
responsibility is designing and delivering courses for distance learners. All planning,
funds, staff, and other resources are devoted to this purpose.
- Dual-mode institutions, which in addition to providing
conventional teaching, deliver distance education programs administered by a special
management unit.
- Mixed-mode institutions, where distance teaching programs are
designed, delivered, and administered by the same people who provide conventional
programs.
- Consortia, arrangements in which a nation's or state's
distance teaching resources are organized under a single management unit, usually made up
of representatives of the institutions providing the resources.
