The purpose of this article is to examine online learning at the macro level in terms of its impact on American K-12 and higher education. The authors draw on six years of data that they have collected through national studies of online learning in American education as well as related research to do a critical and balanced analysis of the evolution of online learning in the United States and to speculate where it is going. Their collection of data represents some of the most extensive research examining online learning in the totality of K-20 education. Issues related to the growth of online learning, institutional mission, student access, faculty acceptance, instructional quality, and student satisfaction are explored. Of particular importance is an attempt to determine if online learning is in fact transforming American education in its essence and to speculate on the future.

Оснивање културних друштава и институција широм Србије након Балканских ратова, било је један од приоритета Краљевине Србије. Осим Културне лиге, деловале су и српске земљорадничке задруге, радничка и партијска удружења, обједињени у важној мисији – образовању, просвећивању и културном уздизању свог народа. Ауторке рада настоје да прате историјски развој Културне лиге, чијим развојем и деловањем су се створили услови за настанак јавних библиотека у Србији.----------------------------------------------Cultural Leagues – forerunners of public libraries in SerbiaThe establishment of cultural societies and institutions throughout Serbia after the Balkan wars were one of the priorities of the Kingdom of Serbia. In addition to the Cultural League, there were also Serbian agricultural cooperatives, workers' and party associations, united in an important mission – education and enlightenment of their people. The authors of the paper try to follow the historical development of the Cultural League, whose development and activities have created the conditions for the emergence of public libraries in Serbia.

Major Figure

This paper investigates the origins of Anglican Anglo-Catholic missions, through the missionary theology and practice of the founder of the Society of St John the Evangelist, Fr Richard Benson, and an exploration of its initial missionary endeavours: the Twelve-Day Mission to London in 1869, and two missions in India from 1874. The Indian missions comprised an institutional mission at Bombay and Pune, and a unique ascetic enculturated mission at Indore by Fr Samuel Wilberforce O'Neill ssje. It is argued that Benson was a major figure in the inauguration of Anglo-Catholic missions; that his ritualist moderation was instrumental in the initial public success of Anglo-Catholic domestic mission; and that in overseas missions he had a clear theological preference for disconnecting evangelism from Europeanising. Benson's approach, more radical than was normal in the second half of the nineteenth century, was a consequence of envisaging mission's being undertaken by a religious order, an entirely new phenomenon for Anglican missions.

Design And Development

Distance education programs in the form of online instruction continue to grow in terms of enrollments as well as courses available. However, consideration of the values promoted by ideal distance and open learning systems may not be guiding the design and development of such programs. The values of access, availability, affordability, continuity, connection, independence equity can form the basis for a conversation on how a program is realizing the promise of distance education given the constraints of institutional mission, culture, and business/academic model.

Mission Education

Any society and its institutions are coercive. While acknowledging the invaluable contribution made by mission education towards the development of black South Africans, Lovedale Missionary Institution exemplifies the concept of a “total institution” susceptible to the problems of power relations. Those who studied there internalized its ethos. Coercive agency encouraged adaptation to missionary ideology. However, many Lovedale students rejected the mores of the religion and education they received as they challenged and resisted the effects of the coercive agency of internalization. Institutionalisation is, by nature, resistant to change as can be seen in the policies of the respective Principals of the Institution. Consequently, black people were alienated by a process of “exclusion”. The values of justice, love and peace are appropriate tools for a new model of education in South Africa.
