PROFILE OF THE NEW UNIVERSITY TEACHER: THE VIEWS OF TURKISH POSTGRADUATE STUDENTS

1 Advances in Cognitive and Communication Technologies: The advent of multimedia has led to the integration of four basic areas of communication: a written documents, b audio-visual materials, c telecommunication tools, and d systems of cognition. The Internet is a key example of this multimedia integration and has become a major communication tool in promoting the circulation of information. Multimedia has changed and is changing the nature of interpersonal communication Rosnay, 1998 , functioning as a dominant factor in the formation, development and use of individual, organizational, social and universal intelligence. Education can now be defined as an activity, with no spatial or temporal boundaries, that is used by individuals of all ages to develop themselves and their own cognitive abilities for the advancement of society. In this process, institutions of higher education are expected to offer essential services to all people in all contexts and to be open, flexible organizations in their aims, structures and processes. At the same time, university teachers are expected to be competent facilitators of these services Pickerden & Boyne, 2000; Boyle & Kneale, 2000
