Abstract

Education
Asynchronous learning networks (ALN) provide a means to break the traditional time and place constraints in delivery of education. This application of information technology to education creates exciting possibilities for extending educational opportunities. Drexel University is using an ALN to deliver a graduate degree in information systems with a software engineering concentration. Students in this program never attend a face-to-face class but nonetheless do their work in an environment that emphasizes collaborative learning. This paper provides an overview of the Drexel project, describes the learning environment, and discusses methods and issues for teaching courses in an ALN environment.
