America’s community colleges are experiencing the most creative and substantive period of transformation in their 118-year history. There has never been so much research, so much support from foundations, and so much commitment from national leaders to reimagine community colleges for today and for the future. 13 Ideas that Are Transforming the Community College World, edited by Terry U. O’Banion, is the seminal work that captures the major ideas faced by community college leaders in this period of transformation. The book includes 23 authors representing 12 national organizations, perhaps the most significant and substantive list of individuals ever to participate in an edited book on the community college. Each author is a nationally-recognized authority on his or her chapter, and all have played major roles as leaders of national organizations.

This incisive and luminescent story, scrupulously grounded in sixteenth-century sources, illuminates the power that "naming" has to create a world - in this case a world still haunted by being the accidental Indies. It is a book about how we perceive and represent the world around us, about the creative and destructive power of language. Through its elaboration of the rich and lively ironies of the Columbus story, The Accidental Indies looks at the nature of storytelling itself.

This book describes trends in technology and learning that are influencing community colleges. Chapter 1, presenting results from a 3-year, 700 college study, concludes that colleges will become more learning-centered, find it difficult to maintain services and open access as student demands increase and resources shrink, form more partnerships, offer more remedial education, and be subject to more accountability mandates. In chapter 2, lessons from Maricopa County Community College (Arizona) indicate that educators must "critique, envision and create" rather than just buy technology to meet the needs of the learner. Chapters 3, 4, and 5 examine administrative, faculty and student services strategies that make use of emerging technologies. Chapters 6 describes user support models based on survey responses from 114 colleges. Chapter 7 details attributes of successful computer-based instructional programs that serve basic skills students. Chapter 8 traces the development of distance learning and its emerging role in instructional programs. Chapter 9 explores changes in culture, policies, practices and other essential college characteristics that accompany changes in technology. Chapter 10 describes technology-driven marketing strategies that help recruit students, secure funding, and enhance the institution's image. Chapter 11 explores the impact of the Internet on higher education. Contains 52 figures, 221 references and 6 survey forms. (PGS)
