This volume covers key applications of new technologies in management education, a new open model of education with integrations of corporate and academic courses and new levels of customization to fit the learning needs of particular individuals and their organizations. A spectrum of web-based and CD-based approaches to business education is presented; new platforms involving integrations of video, audio, PowerPoint, chat and other software; new approaches to e-libraries and e-reserves; online and network mediated simulations and games; web-format case studies; e-portfolios; Internet-mediated MBA programs; teaching soft skills online; wireless online education; ERP integration into courses. A model of technology planning initiatives to improve the delivery of management education is presented. If properly harnessed, the technologies and management education applications described in this volume should provide superior tools for management education and management learning in the 21st century.
