ET: Which university, in your opinion, is the best in the world in terms of providing online education?

In Conversation with Badrul Khan: The Internet is a bridge.
Deccan Herald.
The Web or the Internet has metamorphosed from an information tool of the 90s into an instructional one in the 21st century. Badrul H Khan, Associate Professor in the George Washington University, Washington DC, USA has the credit of first coining the phrase ‘Web-based learning’ and popularising the concept.
