Abstract

For more than a century, the most predominant form of instruction in higher education has been classroom-based and instructor led; today this traditional approach to learning is being challenged by new technologies such as multimedia, Telecommunications, and the Internet. Information communication technology and virtual learning environments are now routinely used in university teaching and research. This paper reports the results of a study conducted on a higher education level. It is focused around the use of network communications in teaching, research, and extension activities by faculty teachers. Use of network communications in academic transactions is explored with Age, Gender, Mode of Instruction, Ranks, Discipline, and Research experience of the faculty teachers. Some of the experiments and their conclusions have been reported and suggestions for better use of network communications in higher education have been proposed.
