Abstract

In this chapter, the authors review the cognitive scientific state-of-the-art relevant for Distance Education (DE) followed by an overview of how different aspects of Distance Education relate to such cognitive mechanisms. The goal is to list and categorize the cognitive advantages and disadvantages of DE and consider and discuss how cognitive factors can be negotiated in new developments in DE. The authors argue that modern DE provides excellent opportunities to supplement traditional DE by the providing of contingent feedback while meeting the learner's need to stay intrinsically motivated.
