Q.What is ICT-based Education?
A. ICT-based Education is instructional delivery that does not constrain the student to be physically present in the same location as the instructor. Historically, ICT-based Education meant correspondence study. Today, audio, video, and computer technologies are more common delivery modes. ITC is the Instructional Telecommunications Council. Their definition is: "The process of extending learning, or delivering instructional resource-sharing opportunities, to locations away from a classroom, building or site, to another classroom, building or site by using video, audio, computer, multimedia communications, or some combination of these with other traditional delivery methods." ITC's definition also includes a discussion of why students take a DE course. ICT-based education is planned learning that normally occurs in a different place from teaching and as a result requires special techniques of course design, special instructional techniques, special methods of communication by electronic and other technology, as well as special organizational and administrative arrangements.

"The process of facilitating teaching and learning through a wide variety of methods and linkages including a full range of student support services appropriate to the learning environment in which the learner and the provider are separated by time and/or place in order to provide expanded student access, improved instructional quality, and increased effectiveness."
"Teaching and learning situations in which the instructor and the learner of learners are geographically separated, and therefore, rely on electronic devices and print material for instructional delivery."
"A system and a process that connects learners with distributed learning resources. While ICT-based learning takes a wide variety of forms, all ICT-based learning is characterized by:
Separation of place and/or time between instructor and learner, among learners, and/or between learners and learning resources.
