Within the global community there is a burgeoning interest in, and demand for, open and distance learning solutions for schools. Improved technology presents new opportunities for improving access (for the children of travellers, or for those in geographically remote areas, for example) and for improving pedagogy for more 'conventional' teaching (by offering teachers, parents and pupils greater support and access to learning resources). The Open Classroom features contributions from leading experts around the world, including the United Kingdom, the United States, New Zealand, Canada and India.
