Whom Can You Trust? Seeking Guidance About Technology

Abstract

The information revolution has raised many issues that must be addressed by university and college administrators and faculty. Many are not now equipped with the knowledge and information to decide upon appropriate responses to the information revolution. I list several possible sources of help, but caution that ultimately informed decisions can only be made if individuals experience the technologies themselves, at least to the extent that they can evaluate the expert opinions they obtain from a variety of sources.
