Ontario Universities' current and planned involvement with distance delivery of university level educational opportunities was reviewed. Additional considerations were: the feasibility of a cooperative approach to distance education, the organizational approach to expanding cooperation among the universities and between the universities and TVOntario, and the desirability of developing additional opportunities for adult part-time students. Findings include the following: about 16,000 Ontarians are being served through university credit programs offered through distance education techniques; 25,000 to 30,000 additional Ontarians are likely to be attracted to distance education opportunities; Laurentian University, the University of Waterloo, and Wilfrid Laurier University now have significant programs of distance study; and TVOntario is providing significant services through distance technologies in cooperation with postsecondary education. A coordinated approach to providing distance education is recommended, including a consortia of universities and working groups of university and agency representatives. Appended materials include an extensive bibliography and a TVOntario progress report entitled, "Toward an Interuniversity Service to Provide Media Supported Distance Education in Ontario" (Ignacy Waniewicz).
