In order to further engage with these important issues a conference was held in Mansfield College, Oxford in September 2003. An edited selection of the papers from that event along with relevant papers that developed as a result of the conference's subsequent correspondences are the contents of this book. The chapters cover a spectrum of practical issues from 'at the e-chalkface' experimentations with virtual technologies via those who consider the consequences of establishing such systems through to those interested in developing long-term strategy or policy in the area. This stimulating and important book is aimed at researchers of topics such as technology-driven education, philosophy, innovation and cultural studies. It is also meant to appeal to anyone with an interest in the 'virtual' world of education. 410 0$aAt the interface/probing the boundaries ;$vv. 34. 606 $aDistance education$vCongresses 606 $aEducation, Higher$xEffect of technological innovations on$vCongresses 606 $aEducational technology$vCongresses 606 $aInternet in higher education$vCongresses 615 0$aDistance education 615 0$aEducation, Higher$xEffect of technological innovations on 615 0$aEducational technology 615 0$aInternet in higher education 676 $a371.33 701 $aNguyen$b Tuan Hoang$f1978-$01750322 701 $aPreston$b David Seth$01627366 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910812467103321 996 $aVirtuality and education$94184931 997 $aUNINA
