Garza Sada 2501 Sur. C.P. 64849, Monterrey, N.L., MEXICO Description: ITESM University System The Monterrey Institute of Technology has the
mission of educating individuals who are committed to the social,
economic and political improvement of their communities, and who are
internationally competitive in their areas of specialty. Carrying out
research and extension relevant to Mexico's sustainable development is
also part of the Institute's mission. ITESM is a national educational
system that incorporates 26 campuses situated in 25 cities in Mexico
with international extensions and accreditation in the Southern
Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) which awards University,
Master, and Doctorate degrees. ITESM Virtual University The Virtual
University of the Monterrey Institute of Technology (VU) brings
together a system of educational teaching-learning processes which
operates utilizing the most advanced technologies in
telecommunications, electronic networks and multimedia, offering
courses at the high school, undergraduate, graduate level and
continuing education as part of the Virtual University's commitment in
supporting campuses of the Monterrey Tech and to extend educational
services to Mexico, Latin America, USA, and Canada. General Statistics

Models and Technologies Used in the ITESM Virtual University The
courses offered by the ITESM Virtual University are complemented by
individual or different technologies integrated for each specific
program using different learning models and the market in which they
are directed. In the ITESM Virtual University, the conjunction of
learning models and technologies that support the realization of these
programs, have been classified as follows: Professor centered model The
professor is positioned as the main transmitting source of information,
knowledge, capabilities, values and attitudes. Considered as the
technology that allows the development of this model, the professor can
transmit information as present professor -that supports the work of
the satellite professor in order to assist and guide the students in
the receiving site- satellite professor -presents the content of the
course of the emitting site and is not located in the same physical
space as their students; the transmission of the class is carried out
via satellite- and the videolinking professor -presents the content of
the course, conference, discussion groups, etc. from a physical space
different from where the students are situated; the transmission is
realized by videoconference. Student centered model The students,guided
by their professor, learn by themselves performing individual
autonomous learning activities. To achieve this, technologies such as
textbooks, class notes, compact discs with tutorial exercises, videos
and the Internet allow the student to investigate and analyze
information related with the course content. Group centered model The
students learn course content and develop attitudes, tolerance, and
collaboration in group work by participating with their group members
-who pertain to different locations and cultures- through electronic
group discussions moderated by their professor. These activities are
carried out through different Internet applications; such as Net News,
First Class, Lotus Notes and Lecturer, just to name a few. The Academic
Programs offered by the ITESM Virtual University High School and
Undergraduate Programs The Virtual University offers different courses
at the high school and undergraduate level with the objective of
enriching the contents of these academic levels as well as developing
in the students the abilities and attitudes necessary to be integrated
in an internationally competitive environment. The markets, which these
courses are directed to, are the high school and undergraduate careers
of the Monterrey Institute of Technology and other universities
situated in and outside of Mexico. Graduate Programs Graduate programs
can be taken completely in the receptive sites situated close and in
their own workplace. The Master's programs that the Monterrey Institute
of Technology offers in its format of distance learning through the
