  His thesis is that the effective and widespread use of online learning/networked education in an institute requires a new form of management for all aspects of its operations: Networked Educational Management. The thesis further presents a set of heuristics for managing the implementation of online learning/networked education in conventional tertiary education. In 2001 these heuristics have been incorporated into the new "LASO (Leadership, Academic & Student Ownership and Readiness) Model for Technological Transformation in Tertiary Education".
