Abstract

Because working nurses found it impossible to take time off to become professionally qualified, Robert Gordon's Institute of Technology (Scotland) converted its conventionally taught course into a distance course with six self-contained modules, each covering two or three subject areas and lasting four or five weeks. Describes the conversion process, curriculum design, and production of resource materials. (PEN)
