Abstract

Virtual University is a buzzword. However, in spite of manifold activities c-learning, that is the usage of multimedia and network technology to benefit or profit the students, will not inevitably be adopted in the university. On the contrary, these technologies have to be strongly pushed and the characteristics and specific culture of traditional universities have to be taken into account. Various methods and techniques have proven to be best practice, which can succeed in a traditional university and open up a way for the alma mater to find its place in cyberspace, too. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2003.
