Inhaltsangabe

Open and Distance Education in the New Millennium - A Chronology in Making is a compilation of events in the history of ODE since the year 2001 till 2018 at both local and global level.

Chronology by its very nature has some advantages over regular books. One may compare developments at local levels with those in the other parts of the world. Then one could start reading a chronology from anywhere in the compilation till any point. Of course the ultimate convenient advantage of a Chronology could be that it can easily be used to plan some events while celebrating on timeline.

May be one fine day we discover country-wise ODE chronologies!
