In our digital age of the Internet and World Wide Web the opportunities to enable truly flexible learning in most educational situations are exciting, challenging and widespread. This book is about learning, teaching and education, and the role that technology plays in bringing about improvements for students, educators and institutions alike. Betty Collis and Jef Moonen present a series of proven and practical guidelines, based on their balanced experience of using technology in education. Together, these give readers an overview of how technological applications in education can be developed and harnessed. The authors are leading innovators and practitioners in the field. In their work they have developed a series of 18 key lessons which are detailed in the book. These can be applied by those working with educational technology at a number of different levels: those taking an institutional or managerial perspective; those responsible for implementing new approaches to learning; those concerned with issues of pedagogy and effective teaching; and those dealing with flexible learning technology.
