Computer-based education (CBE) or e-learning--involving either traditional schools or virtual universities--has become an accepted form of education in the last decade. In CBE, computers and other electronic devices are integrated into the learning experience. This concentration includes computer-aided instruction and distance learning. The CBE concentration is intended for those who want to combine courses in computer and information systems with courses in education management and computer-based instructional systems. It can be an effective choice for teachers, education managers and others interested in a career in education.
