Distributed Learning and Institutional Restructuring
| Title: | Distributed Learning and Institutional Restructuring (ID: ERM9943) | | Author(s): | Brian L. Hawkins | | Topics: | E-Learning, Organizational Structure, Strategic Planning | | Origin: | Educom Review (Archives) (1999) | | Type: | Articles, Papers, and Reports | | Abstract: | Before an institution pursues the development of a distributed learning program, it needs to make a number of decisions regarding the marketplace and to define a clear business plan and strategy. In this article, Brian Hawkins identifies several issues institutions need to consider as they develop a distributed learning program. These institutional challenges are library access, faculty workload, faculty incentives, faculty support structures, intellectual property, articulation agreements, financial aid, pricing, cross-subsidization of programs, institutional loyalty and philanthropy, technological infrastructure, and organizational structures and governance. | | View this resource: | |
