Author(s):Judith S. Eaton (Council for Higher Education Accreditation)
Topics:Accreditation, E-Learning
Origin:Community Contributions (2000)
Type:Articles, Papers, and Reports
Abstract:

A small set of core academic values is central to the history and tradition of higher education. Distance learning, however unintentionally, challenges these values, forcing reconsideration of their origins and the choices they represent. This paper focuses on regional accreditation as one of the oldest and most frequently used forms of institutional quality assurance in the United States.
