Distance learning is something that is probably familiar to this generation. Electronic
learning is the new field in today’s technology. Johnstone, a director of the Western
Cooperative for Educational Telecommunications claims, “even though well over twothirds of the colleges and universities in the U.S. now report offering some type of
distance learning, there is still no easy way to describe a typical distance learner’s
experiences” (Johnstone, 14). Many older people are having a harder time to adjust to
the new type of distance learning. There will be needed time to regulate these new
learning opportunities. In the years to come, we will be asking, what does that mean?
