Peter S. Cookson is the Editor Emeritus of www.irrodl.org. He is a former full Professor of Distance education and Vice President of Research with Athabasca University - Canada's Open University. While with Athabasca University, he worked on a ODL development project in Sri Lanka. Acting on his heart-felt interest for open and distance education in developing countries, Dr. Cookson left Athabasca University in 2003 to pursue ODL development work at the University for Peace, affiliated with the United Nations, in Costa Rica. In 2006 he was appointed Academic Director for Consorcio Clavijero, a education network of more than 20 higher education institutions in Veracruz, Mexico. In that position, he is responsible for academic program development and the training of university professors who are content experts to design, “write,” and implement online distance education courses throughout Mexico and beyond.
