We can pour knowledge into heads of the students by that funnel. This provides universities with an instrument that is capable to charge students with a big volume of data and knowledge. But it is a very dangerous expectation. Universities are the institutions devoted to educate students. But education is not just charging students by knowledge.
Education also means teaching to the ways of thinking .
Creative thinking, if possible. There is no substitute for the role of teacher, the real living teacher. This should be taken into account when considering the distance learning and its ICT support. Otherwise, the role of the universities will degrade from the centers of excellence and education to the merely training institutions. Training and preparation of the teachers and the students must demonstrate that the computer literacy is not an aim but only a very useful and powerful instrument.
