The Cyberspace Challenge: Modernity, Post-modernity and Reflections on International Networking Policy.
Goodenow, Ronald
Comparative Education, v32 n2 p197-216 Jun 1996
Emergence of global communications networks raises questions about the nature of pluralism, community, delivery of education, construction of knowledge, and role of comparative educators in a postindustrial world. Ownership, access, and definition and distribution of knowledge will become major policy issues. Networking experiences in telemedicine illustrate the need for educators to adopt interdisciplinary approaches. Contains 72 references. (Author/SV)
