This paper reports on an ongoing research project at the College of Architecture and ArtruOP that aims to formulate a CAAD program model in Distance Education (Learning/Teaching) framework, to be applied and implemented in future settings at Open Universities in Jordan.

A world-wide literature review on the subject of Distance Education and Open Universities illustrates one aspect of the methodology used to establish the CAAD program model.

The Methodology also involves an assessment of the methods and means used in the delivery of materials to students enrolled at Open Universities, in addition to an analysis of the current program ofstudy and subject related courses.

This study investigates several questions concerning the efficiency of CAAD teaching in Distance Education in relationship to several key factors in Open University system, namely: the methods of study, progrum of study, student type/body, academic/degree requirements, and residency/academic calend
