Globalization is a hot topic in the media and in the business world these days. The Levin Institute of the State University of New York defines globalization as "a process of interaction and integration among the people, companies and governments of various countries, a process driven by international trade and investment, and support of information technology". [1] The Internet has one of those innovations that information technology has resulted in a new era of global communications and commerce. It has enabled call centers in India, for example, calls for the service of customers worldwide hyper-competitive prices. Globalization has redefined entire industries and the Web, to lead the revolution in many cases.
Now consider what the Internet did for higher education. Today it is possible for someone to complete a comprehensive curriculum from virtually anywhere on the planet as long as it. Access to a computer and a network connection Whether you're a busy professional or a mother who stays at home, there's no reason why you do not have access to a decent college education. This should not be surprising if you have lived in isolation technology. Why hire a new look? The cost of training is at an unsustainable rate. This inflationary pressure has reason many pauses and reflection, so some pre-college walk at all. This is particularly problematic for the knowledge economy, which depends on a highly skilled workforce.
According to the College Board, for the academic year 2011-12 in the United States, the average cost of tuition in the state, in a four-year college $ $ 8,244 public, an increase of 7.0% compared to last year. Based on this estimate, assuming a graduate in four years, the total cost of higher education $ 32,976 USD (or $ 41,220 U.S. for 5 years). Tuition fees, at an average rate of 5.6% per year increase above inflation in the United States in the last decade and shows no signs of abatement. [2] The global recession is forcing governments around the world-saving measures for the loss of tax revenue, higher education to compensate for implementation was the victim of these cuts. It happens everywhere, even in Europe, where the entrance was purely demand based on the power that students too little, if any, to pay costs. The UK has recently seen the introduction of fees. The cost of maintaining these institutions is aimed at students in the form of higher tuition fees and student debt that will cripple transfer future economic growth. Traditionally, the brick and mortar institutions limited by the physical space in the classroom and ensure access to the best and brightest, the criteria have been implemented. But tougher admission requirements leads to reduced access. However, cyberspace has changed the dynamics so almost unlimited access and the ability to leverage economies of scale.
