Online and distance education is an incredible way for students who are unable to "get to school". This doesn't only include students living in remote access, but for those students with disorders or disabilities and who simply cannot come to class. For example, I met many students who want to complete a GED. However, due to a disorder (anxiety, depression) or a disability...and that the student would like the challenge to remain private, they are unable to come to an actual class.
Askov's (2003) paper on Expanding Access to Literacy with Online Distance Education discusses the expansion of Online or Distance education can support students, educators and schools to ultimately work to find ways to succeed!
