This paper analyses the demand of autonomy and independence in learning as a decisive factor in the students’ decision of taking regular courses in higher distance education. First, we have to separae independent learning, usual concept in (he specialized literature, and (he demand of au(onomy, as a motivation or, only, the answer to a question. This demand has recently grown and we suppose it will grow in size in the future. We have found the demand of autonomy differently spreads in (he students in he Universidad Nacional de Educación a Distancia (Spain). Next, demand of autonomy became technological autonomy: an autonomy without any classroom and presence of pro fessor. So, (he relation between pro fessor and sudent is reduced (o media and the moment of examination. In the future, this technologi cal autonomy will be specially pushed by the communication and information technologies.Downloads
