The application of advanced educational technology in Brazil
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 1 - Trang 357-361 - 1972
Education must be given the financial resources needed for expansion and be made
more productive by the economic use of human resources. Technology can help to

Culture and identity in higher education research
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 36 - Trang 119-138 - 1998
The aim of this article is to develop a cultural approach in higher education
studies. It will be argued that the cultural approach is rooted mainly in two
different intellectual starting points to analyze academic communities as
cultural entities: studies of disciplinary cultures and institutional cultures.
Notions of disciplines as cultural entities have been developed in Europe in
