Abstract
This article describes the high-technology classroom in terms of both physical and virtual space. Information technology is crucial in expanding the walls of the physical classroom to create a “virtual” space for learning. The article takes a communications-based perspective to suggest that faculty need to understand the nature of new technology-enabled teaching environments, appreciate the opportunities the environment affords, and rethink their teaching assumptions and paradigms accordingly. In addition, the article briefly describes how administrators and faculty can create a culture that supports and encourages the change process needed for full-scale and effective use of the new teaching capabilities that are being created.
