Education is one of the tools for making people as good citizens. Distance education is an alternative system for formal education. Nonformal and distance education fulfils the democratic aspirations of people and a right step in spreading for achiving the goals of 'Education for All'. U.K. Open University at the international level and Ten state open Universities have contributed immensily for the development of distance education. This book deals with non formal adult education, distance education, open learning, online/virtual education, level of utilization of the support services and learning attitudes towards open university systems. This book provides fairly good coverage on distance education and the role of student support services in distance education.
