Description
"Higher education has always been seen as the curator, creator, and
critic of the basic knowledge of our world. This basic knowledge is
being drastically affected by its rapid transfer through the new
electronic channels. The traditional world of higher education must
either embrace this new virtual world or become less relevant in
the value it adds to society. How effectively institutions link the
tools of technology with their educational vision and mission will
determine their continued success in being a primary source of
education and knowledge for our society. This report on the virtual
campus will help institutions engage in conversation concerning
their part in the virtual world expanding around us."
--from the Foreword by Jonathan D. Fife, former series editor
and director of the ERIC Clearinghouse on Higher Education
Powerful information and instructional technologies have created
