ONE of the education models that has attracted the attention of Indonesian students currently is distance learning. Distance learning in Indonesia is a competitive alternative that can influence the growth of prospective human resources in Indonesia. It is not only useful for students who have geographical constrains but also for all socio-economical levels. Therefore, it is not longer limitedly offered in Open University (called Universitas Terbuka or UT) which is university that totally practices distance learning models but in many conventional universities as well. UT, however, dominates the highest amount of students. Pannen noted that in 1996 the UT was named as ane of the mega universities in the world for having an enrollment rate of about 400,000 students. According to her calculations in 2003, the majority (95%) of UT students was working students and only 20% of the student population lived in remote areas.

            The large number of students who involved in distance learning indicates that distance learning has been used as an alternative method for receiving education in UT. Therefore, a recent national law concerning the Indonesian education system mentioned that distance learning specially as one of many choices available for Indonesians to obtain education. Distance learning has been approved at any level from elementary to tertiary; from formal degree granting to continuing education. In another  word, distance learning will be treated as being aqual to other forms of education. In specific circumstances such as in the field of business, distance learning is considered as an elite educational model because of having sophisticated and high technology format transferring knowledge between instruction and students.

            Despite the success of distance learning in term of increasing the number of students, the quality is perceived as questionable. The educational institution has question the quality of the teaching learning process with respect to the interaction between teacher and students, teacher-student accommodation, teachers’ feedback and students’ achievement comparing face-to-face education. In addition, the appropriate strategies used in distance learning become challenging as well. Implementing distance education can be challenging because there are many aspects need to be considered. These aspects include instructional delivery systems, students’ learning styles and cultural variations, models of distance education, and the availability of technology support. This article, however, just emphasizes into the concepts of distance learning including the definition and historical background of distance learning and the method of distance learning that have been implemented in Indonesia.
