An innovation of instructional technology called "Distance Education" has been introduced to the Philippines through the FOUNDATION FOR THE SUPPORT OF THE UNITED NATIONS (FSUN). Distance Education is defined as an effective learning that requires educational materials, which can only be utilized with the broadband Internet.
