How can institutes of higher learning make information technology (IT) a priority, when online education drives up the cost? These essays raise important issues relating to copyright and fair use policies, faculty competence and cooperation, student performance and satisfaction, and hidden costs. Library Journal Dollars, Distance, and Online Education is an extremely important work. Its overall breadth and the depth of each contribution make it the definitive text on the 'new economics of higher education.' In fact, one could easily see it serving as the core text in a special-topics graduate seminar on technology costs in higher education finance. This collection will be of interest to university and college workers who want to know what administrators are being told about the financial costs and benefits of online education. This book is an important resource, and campus administrators will find a wealth of useful details to help them manage their immediate technology crises and incorporate technology into their primary planning process throughout campus. Budget analysts, whether on campus, in systems or working for elected officials will find the detailed case studies, cost equations, planning and accounting methodologies to be helpful. Campus academic officers also need this handbook. Economics Of Education Reviewmehr
