This book examines how the higher education environment is being shaped by new information technologies, with a particular focus on technologies based in the Internet. This work will illustrate a vision of how virtual universities and their elements are emerging, and of how they can be shaped to the needs of knowledge-based societies. It will also examine what requirements and policies are necessary to effect the worldwide transformation of educational systems, especially given the disparate needs and capabilities across countries.
