Description
This interview provided an opportunity to obtain the perspectives of an international expert in distance learning and technology, Wolfram Laaser. Distance education in areas outside of the United States, particularly in Africa, often differs in scope and availability of technology and other resources. Laaser, a German scholar, has considerable experience in developing distance education programs for Africa and the Middle East and recently retired from the Center for Distance Study Development at FernUniversitat in Hagen, the only state-maintained distance learning university in Germany. The educational delivery system at this university includes written materials, interactive CDROM and DVD media, and online learning modules. To prepare for this interview, I researched Laaser's background and experience by reviewing his portfolio on LinkedIn, as well as other biographic material found through a Google search, and by reading several of his publications. The interview itself was conducted by e-mail. After a preliminary communication to introduce myself to Laaser, I then submitted questions. It was obvious from the background information I had on Laaser that his depth and breadth of experience in distance education and in training with technology was very great and the scope of questions I could pose could be very broad. I decided to focus upon those areas related to his experience in Africa and on his current interests. For each question, I have provided a little background on the issue or topic to better frame the question for Laaser. Rather than asking for a purely academic response, I expressed my interest in obtaining his immediate reaction or personal opinion based on his background and unique experiences.
