内容説明

Amidst the euphoria about the new frontiers of technology sometimes perceived as a panacea for expansion of higher education in developing countries, there is a need to analyze persistent and new grounds of unequal opportunity for access, learning, and the production of knowledge. This volume addresses fundamental questions about the educational process such as: * The use of technology in higher education for a holistic educational system for social development * The actual technological capacity in Africa and possibilities for virtual higher education * Cultural relevance of the curriculum and pedagogy * Pedagogy and gender in cyberspace education * Perils of externally-driven distance education programs in Africa and the quest for ownership towards development * Challenges and opportunities in the making of knowledge society in an Asian context * Strategies to promote constructive virtual higher education in Africa and Asia.
