There is a post further down here about a guy who wants to switch from Class to Distance because you only get taught in class and the real learning comes at night when he is sudying.
I can agree with this. When I was at Uni basically the lecture during the day only just cracked the surface of the topic, at night when studying (after having been to the student union and some student parties) was only really when you could learn the subject. So to me really DL would be great as I say it is at home that you really learn the material. You will not remember half of what is said in class let a lone learn it when the lecturer reads the information out once.
