Efficiency-minded knowledge managers nowadays say that the very idea of the university as a place where the same people produce and distribute knowledge is a throwback to the Middle Ages. Today, teaching is thus said to be more efficiently delivered on-line, and research best delivered through dedicated “science parks.”
当今效率至上的知识管理者们认为将大学视为由同一群人创造并传播知识的场所是一种向中世纪的倒退。 因此今天据说最有效的教学方式是在线授课，而最有效的研究方式是设立专门的“科学园区”。
