I didn't really know what category to put these two items in. They both are concerned with new media (mostly Internet) effect on education, so maybe we need an education category:
1. http://www.emerablinsight.com/oth.htm. On the Horizon: An international quarterly publication providing analysis and comment on the future of post-secondary education. On the Horizon provides a ‘radar’ service to key decision makers concerned with post secondary education in its many and emerging forms, from traditional institutions to corporate universities, from private/for-profits to non-profits around the world. Our mission is to inform educators about the challenges that they will face in a changing world and the steps they can take to meet these challenges. On the Horizon draws on the expertise and insights of contributors from a variety of backgrounds and disciplines - educators, public and industry leaders, scholars and other professionals concerned with the future of education - to provide the broadest and most informed coverage of the critical developments that are reshaping the world in which we live and work.
Adam's own note: Not everything here deal with new media, but the pieces that do are quite interesting and raise important questions. Check out the Digital Natives debate in Volumes # 5 and 6 in 2001. To login, go through the U's library site and use your x500 ID and password
2. Pittinsky, Matthew Serbin, ed. The Wired Tower: Perspectives on the Impact of the Internet on Higher Education. Upper Saddle River, NJ: Prentice Hall, 2003. A collection of essays regarding the issue in the subtitle, with discussions ranging from economics, access, globalization, and philosophical debates about e-learning.
