What's new?
- higher emphasis on learning (and learning to learn) than teaching,
- the teacher becomes more of a tutor than information disseminator,
- higher possibilities for distant learning (not in a physical but in a virtual class room),
- life long learning perspective (time independent learning),
- new types of interactive learning material with higher realism and user adapted interfaces,
- greater possibilities to combine courses from different universities (virtual universities),
- possibilities to adapt and/or develop new pedagogical methods with respect to learning material, learning modes - exploration, discovery, problem based learning etc., student competence and intelligence profile, collaboration, teacher roles, and social contexts,
- higher demands on client competence in connection with specification of distributed learning system and tools.
and
- IT in itself does not improve pedagogy and learning methods,
- IT-tools and knowledge representations used must be (at least implicitly) described to the learner.
