A Suitable Framework for Quality Assurance in Distance Education in Developing Countries

Abstract

Though the concept of Quality Assurance(QA) in Education is relatively new some guidelines are already in place. With the new concepts of education dissemination the need of newer effective QA methodologies are evident. The present work has been undertaken to derive a framework of digital distance education development in developing countries’ environment that brings in the QA awareness in all phases of the digital distance education process. The work highlights upon the concept of Multi-modal Digital Distance Education and how QA relates to it. A suggestive framework for quality assurance of a course in distance format has been described along with the involved processes.
