Book Description
"This volume will appeal to a wide array of readers, from novices to those already working in the field. Recommended for all collections." --CHOICE "Reference literature has been hard put to keep pace with its (distance learning) changes so the appearance of an Encyclopedia is most welcome. Recommended for academic and public libraries." --LIBRARY JOURNAL In today′s fast-paced world, with multiple demands on time and resources as well as pressures for career advancement and productivity, self-directed learning is an increasingly popular and practical alternative in continuing education. The Encyclopedia of Distributed Learning defines and applies the best practices of contemporary continuing education designed for adults in corporate settings, Open University settings, graduate coursework, and in similar learning environments. Written for a wide audience in the distance and continuing education field, the Encyclopedia is a valuable resource for deans and administrators at universities and colleges, reference librarians in academic and public institutions, HR officials involved with continuing education/training programs in corporate settings, and those involved in the academic disciplines of Education, Psychology, Information Technology, and Library Science.

Book Description
The purpose is to document training practices at a sampling of transit agencies concerning the application and repair of advanced on-board electronics so that key personnel have the knowledge needed to make informed decisions. The objectives of the synthesis were to examine the level of E/E training being provided by transit agencies to highlight innovative and effective training approaches and, based on findings from the conclusions, to provide agencies with the opportunity to improve their training programs. Because maintenance is an area that is often overlooked, this synthesis gives it the greatest focus.
