Editorial Reviews
Review
“Should be essential reading for any university manager or government administrator concerned about the future of universities in the 21st century. It provides pragmatic guidelines for those, as much in conventional universities as in distance education institutions, who are contemplating the adoption of technology for competitive advantage.” — Tony Bates, Director, Distance Education and Technology, University of British Columbia “John S. Danielbs Mega-Universities and the Knowledge Media is many things: a visionary treatise, a case study, a strategic plan, and a practical guide……Danielbs book confirms that educators worldwide have much to do……Even the most forward thinking of universities will find in (the) book a fresh vision for making the necessary progress…..This book is a “must read” for those interested in distance education on a large or a small scale.”— The American Journal of Distance Education
