The [Impact of Distance Education on Adult Learning] IDEAL project has been designed to get a better understanding of distance education offered by higher education institutions and to examine how higher education institutions can contribute to adult learning by way of distance education. The project aims to: offer insights on the needs of adult learners to both policy makers and distance education providers; strengthen the social dimension of higher education by better meeting the needs of adult learners; and increase the participation of adult learners in higher education through distance education. The central research question of the project is: How can the distance education offer of European higher education institutions be better matched to the needs of adult learners?
