Abstract

The 20th century has been an era of accelerating change and will undoubtedly continue as the new millennium ap proaches. The institution of higher education is just one of the many institutions which has been tremendously impacted by change — especially in the field of technology. As a result, we are experiencing the lifting of the bonds of time and space that have been a part of the educational agenda. While there are many forces affecting education, two powerful forces are at work and are demanding that educational institutions make significant changes related to the delivery of instruction. These two forces are (1) the demand for new technology, and (2) the increasing need for significant and continued learning.
