Information technology is an amalgam of some wonderful inventions of the 21th century in
electronics and communication. During a very short span of time it has acquired an important
place in almost all aspects of human life and particularly in the field of education. India has
taken some bold steps to adapt and absorb the advances in information technology by
constitution of national task force. Having missed the benefits of the industrial revolution as
a result of more than two centuries of colonization, the country is overtaken by the information
revolution. At the same time globalization having opened the doors wide to alien influence,
the government has decided to take all steps to make India an IT super power by adoption
of IT as a national program so as to enable personal and national growth. At the one end,
some premier institutions are having access to all facilities in terms of educational technology
such as multimedia system, LAN, WAN, and World Wide Web on the other hand a large
number of university are still depending only on stereotyped lecture method in imparting
knowledge. Therefore the existence of technology gap provides an opportunity to use IT
supported education technologies for better delivery of education, easier access to a number
of knowledge sources, sharing through networks and quality distance learning in
management education. In this paper will cover the scope of web based learning, Technology
of delivery system, Electronic Library, IT in Distance Education. |
