The New Learning Landscape

Just a bit that caught my eye from Richard Wallis’s notes at Stellenbosch:

The New Learning Landscape

Prof Johannes CronjeTeaching and Training Studies University of Pretoria – Who Killed E-learning?

The buzz-word e-learning has died
The vision of the e-learning doing it all died with it – monumental failures
Why? – over emphasis on technology being the life blood of e-learning
presenting things – push technology – ppt/pdf too much text
lack of on going support – no clear e-learning strategy – no maintenance of commitment
Nobody will morn its passing we are looking – elsewhere
Strong competition for easy options
We should be thinking about learning not e-learning
