Abstrakty

For higher education to remain innovative and viable in the future, factors facilitating and inhibiting online education must be closely examined and addressed. Higher education's approaches to the phenomenon of online learning reveal much about its ability to be proactive in the face of significant societal change. Miller1 notes that this is a time in higher education not unlike the period after World War II when colleges and universities were compelled to respond to post-war issues and opportunities by revising and establishing policies and procedures to facilitate entry into, and completion of, educational pursuits on the part of men and women from all walks of life.
