Abstract

Nowadays, distance education has become a genuine science because it is targeted at a different audience which is comprised of a series of generations. Distance education learners are people who enrol for undergraduate university degrees with an aim to get acces sto further education in order to either maintain or change their workplace. Motivated by these goals, learners perceive distance education as a means of acquiring and developing knowledge. In order to increase and enrich the quality of this type of education. To increase and enrich the quality of this type of education, universities have dedicated a full course which simultaneously envisages a theoretical background, a practical study method and a series of pedagogical tools. Thus, an interactive pedagogical instrument is at the core of teacher-mediated and indivitial instruction. At present, printed documents are sent via the internet, a trend which facilitates both autonomous and interactive education.The internet becomes a vehicle for sending learning and teaching materials. It is not the mass media resources that influence the learning process that a student or an intern is engaged in, it is the way that the educational resources are presented. By creating a real life working environment, instructors involve their students in business simulations to develop business communication skills and gain full knowledge of business- related vocabulary.
