“…A novel solution was soon found by seven states which established central units for distance education at ten conventional universities, with the twofold responsibility of (i) supporting students of the FernUniversität; and (ii) developing their own distance education programs (Groten 1992;Bernath 1994Bernath , 1996Kappel et al 2002).…”
