On transfer: The distance learner and the transfer of learning

The problem of transfer of learning has been an enduring one.  

On transfer explores the learning and transfer experiences of learners enrolled in a Bachelor of Business degree with a distance education institution.  Such a degree is designed for practical application, and those who enrol in the degree expect to be able to use or transfer what they learn to new and different contexts. 

Learning to transfer has two aspects in this context: the motivation for learning; and the process of learning for transfer.
