Learners from diverse backgrounds and geographic locations can be exposed to the best in instructional materials, instructors, and creative methodologies. Through the use of televisions, computers, fax machines, telephones, modems, and satellites, new and creative kinds of educational programs can bring the instructor and the learner together in classrooms without walls to form a new kind of learning environment at campuses, business sites, public libraries, community centers, and homes. Such a visionary application of technology to educational needs provides opportunities for information and learning to be shared worldwide. Distance learning delivers knowledge to those who need it. Its convenience, cost-effectiveness, flexibility, and responsiveness allow learners in any environment to access information that can be applied directly to social, educational, or work dynamics.
Distance learning is an excellent tool for sharing knowledge.
And with knowledge, learners worldwide can move forward. Teleconferences and Videoconferences are another of the LeCroy Center's productions that use technology to reach audiences on a national and international scale. Over the years our teleconferences have quickly gained a national reputation, as evidenced by the fact that several hundred sites at colleges and universities regularly downlink each production. In a rapidly changing environment, satellite-delivered programs allow institutions to access the latest information quickly and with a reasonable investment. Faculty, staff, and communities can be served by programs based around satellite teleconferences.
