Individual Differences in Web-based Instruction  

Web-based instruction has been increasingly used to support teaching and learning.  Because the user group of web-based instruction includes learners from heterogeneous backgrounds, individual differences become an important issue in the development of web-based instruction. This special issue of BJET focuses on how individual differences influence student learning in web-based instruction.  Topics of interest may focus on, but are not restricted to:
 
*               Adult Learning;
*       Cognitive Styles;
*       Culture Factors;
*       Disability Needs
*       Domain Knowledge;
*       Gender Differences;
*       Spatial Ability
*       System Experience
   
All papers will be refereed.  Articles should not normally exceed 4,000 words including references to any sources that readers might wish to trace.
