- Insights from Research on Distance Education Learners, Learning, and Learner Support West, Richard E. Socialization Elementary Secondary Education Distance Education Academic Advising Library Services Academic Achievement Models Personal Autonomy Metacognition Meta Analysis Motivation Satisfaction Electronic Learning Cognitive Processes Difficulty Level Educational Technology Academic Libraries This article, originally published in "Distances et Savoirs" (D & S--7/2009. "A la Croisee des Recherches," p571-584) reviews the key ideas related to increasing student learning and support described in selected chapters from the second edition of the "Handbook of Distance Education" (Moore 2007). These chapters described research findings related to the impact of distance education on learners in general (student autonomy, cognition, social learning, and satisfaction) as well as specific subgroups of distance students and instructors (K-12, female, and disabled students as well as academic advising and library services). This article concludes with brief recommendations for future research in each of these areas. Appearing at the end of this article is "Comments on the Article 'Insights from Research on Distance Education Learners, Learning, and Learner Support' by Richard E. West, as Published in 'Distances et Savoirs'" (by Daniel Peraya). [This article was translated by Cyril Fichez.]
