2. organizational definition
As mentioned this internet university will be constructed without the central back office, which means the processes such as recruiting, enrolling, teaching, hiring, paying, administrating, managing are all available on the internet. To design this organization and implement the idea, personally I suggest to start it as an small example, in this case the investment and cost could be effectively controlled, it also could be improved later rely on the feedbacks as well. For that reason, this organization could be designed as a small unit, the architecture of staff is kind of informal and network connections as well, employees could be self-prescribed to do their own job, whilst the information are shared in the group, every staff member is encouraged to propose the suggestions.
