Hewitt, Anne M.; Spencer, Susan S.
Metropolitan Universities, v23 n2 p33-50 2012

As online programs increase exponentially, technology best practices become essential for fully integrating Web 2.0 learning opportunities. A twelve-year review of a graduate online program's successful adoption of technology highlights three such best practices: strategic imperatives, embedded technology infrastructure, and program technology infusion plans.
