Abstract
Distance education has come of age. Its foundations have become firmer, its applications have grown in number and variety, and its influence has become more visible and more substantive. Yet, one question is still frequently raised: "Does distance education resolve the current problems of education?" This paper aims at giving some answers to this question by investigating the benefits and challenges of distance education. What follows is a thorough discussion of the question. Finally, suggestions are made for further research in the field of distance education to improve the current educational system.
