Paper read at Wanderstudent Conference, October 2000, Leuven, Belgium

Society at large changes rapidly, so does education. Higher education is confronted with new target groups and new educational demands. Providing education to them in a face-to-face setting rapidly becomes expensive, often prohibitively so. The paper argues that the use of ICT merely to enhance existing practices will not do to meet the new demands effectively. Innovative, ICT supported means of developing educational content and delivering it are needed.
