Abstract
The current American education system is faced with shifting market patterns resulting from rapid changes in the technologies designed to enhance the delivery of education. Today's university is vastly different from the institutions of twenty years ago. Technology's influence is changing the way we teach, the way we conduct research, and the way we seek to provide increased education opportunities without increased budgets. In answering this challenge, many departments of Information Technology are beginning to develop programs to offer courses using Web-based delivery, i.e., via the “virtual classroom.” In this article, we offer background and insight into the key elements involved with creating a virtual classroom, a discussion of the activities associated with the development of an online Information Technology course, and some of our observations concerning the impact of the online paradigm based on our own experience.
