FOLSOM, CALIF.
The University of Miami (Fla.) has the best higher education Web site in America, according to the Center for Digital Education, a research and advisory institute on information technology (IT) in education. The organization sponsors an annual Best of the Web Contest.
The center, which also awarded the Fresno (Calif.) Unified School District top honors in the K-12 category, based its decision on innovation; Web-based delivery of services; efficiency; economy; and improved student, faculty and citizen access. More than 260 public-sector Web sites entered the contest.
Rounding out the top five in the higher education category were North Shore Community College, Mass., and Montgomery County Community College, Pa. (tied for second); Greenriver Community College, Wash.; North Orange County Community College District, Calif.; and Oklahoma City Community College.
