Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities: Improving Utilization of theInformation Highway by Hispanic-Serving Institutions

摘要

Institutions of higher education have a leading role in adapting technology topromote learning and in promoting technological literacy. This study analyzes the access to and utilization of telecommunications technology, the potential impact of technology on the K-16 levels, and the impact of technology on the Hispanic community and its economic development by regionally accredited colleges and universities that serve significant numbers of Hispanics in the United States and Puerto Rico. The findings are primarily derived from responses to a three-page, 45-question survey that was mailed to 125 Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSIs) in January 1995.
