Abstract

Today, the Internet is a part of a new educational culture with its own unique characteristics. Online education is attempting to fill a niche in the changing the nature of education around the globe specifically in the area of higher education. Consequently, many traditional educators are either considering or making the transition to the online medium. Educators are coming under increasing pressure to adapt their teaching to accommodate the new technologies.This study focuses on a single, but arguably the most important area – teaching via the Internet. Towards this focus, faculty members from various universities and departments were interviewed to look at the many different ways the Internet is being used for teaching, and faculty experiences in that regard. The lessons they have learned over the years provide valuable insight into new, more effective ways of teaching students in the online environment.
