"Distributed education" lacks a correspondence school tone and history and thus is perceived as making more use of communications and especially synchronous communications technologies. Further research using both terms "distance" and "distributed education" returns better results, with considerable overlap. Distributed learning is a viable ...
Distributed practice (also known as spaced repetition, the spacing effect, or spaced practice) is a learning strategy, where practice is broken up into a number of short sessions over a longer period of time.
Distributed cognition is an approach to cognitive science research that was developed by cognitive anthropologist Edwin Hutchins during the 1990s. [1]From cognitive ethnography, Hutchins argues that mental representations, which classical cognitive science held that are within the individual brain, are actually distributed in sociocultural systems that constitute the tools to think and ...
ADL uses the term “distributed learning” broadly, to refer to all network-centric learning technologies and their corresponding best practices for their use. Similarly, ADL uses the term “learning” to include education, training, operational performance support, and other forms of ad hoc, just-in-time, or self-directed learning. [10]
[1] The definition of education has been explored by theorists from various fields.

The construct has since been adopted by other organizations engaged in digital library and digital learning resource projects including the Learning Registry [7] initiative spearheaded by the Office of Educational Technology at the U.S. Department of Education [8] and the Advanced Distributed Learning Initiative at the Department of Defense.

UDL applies this general idea to learning: that curriculum should, from the outset, be designed to accommodate all kinds of learners. [1] Educators have to be deliberate in the teaching and learning process in the classroom (e.g.,Preparing class learning profiles for each student). This will enable grouping by interest.
