Abstract :
While there has been considerable development of tools for distance education, there has been relatively little work focused on how to offer users security and privacy during learning activities. This paper focuses on how tool development can combine with security to provide a safe, efficient, and effective learning environment. We present a number of distance education applications developed in our lab and show how security and privacy may be integrated into these applications.
