Emerging Technologies in Distance Education for Business

Abstract

The development of high-performance computing and communications is creating new media, such as the World Wide Web and virtual realities. The innovative kinds of pedagogy engendered by these emerging media, messages, and experiences make possible a transformation of conventional distance education—which replicates traditional classroom teaching across barriers of distance and time—into an alternative instructional paradigm: distributed learning. This article describes leading edge research in three technologies well suited for distributed teaching and learning in business-related education: computer-supported collaborative learning, multimedia/hypermedia, and experiential simulation.
