Large-scale deployment of distance education in computer science at the Hellenic Open University

This paper presents experiences related to the introduction of educational technologies in a situation involving a large number of students. We argue that significant differences exist between pilot use and large-scale deployment of educational technologies. To support our case, we present the experiences from the gradual introduction of educational technologies in a module of a computer science course involving 1242 students and 40 tutors, all relying on these technologies.
