Introduction Welcome to Cyberschools' introduction preview page. You can glimpse part of the book's complete contents here. Perhaps Socrates asked the questions first, but What to teach, and How to teach it are two of the biggest challenges still facing higher education. Where to teach and what constitutes learning are two more. We now have entered the knowledge age.
Information is everything.
Enticing Opportunity Combine them with what is becoming a huge global demand for higher education, and the opportunity we now have to deliver that education electronically anywhere, anytime, any place becomes not just enticing but emphatic. Where Education Fits Education is how information becomes meaningful. Education, delivered electronically through TV, computers, the Internet and the like, is one education tool the knowledge-age worker can use anywhere, almost any place, nearly any time, and more cheaply than education that's delivered in one physical place such as a college campus. It's time to fuse our knowledge age electronic tools with our great teaching institutions and libraries. It's time to create a world that is, like Socrates' Athens once was, a great school, a world vibrant with interest about education, where educational opportunity is visible to all and hope is alive.
