Research in Learning Technology (Dec 2000)
New literacies and future educational culture
Abstract
The argument in this paper is based on the view that, even though traditional classroom teaching and lecturing are likely to remain the norm, there is a recognized and growing place for the use of technology in educational provision in schools and universities. Online course design is still very much open to discussion, since traditions of delivery have yet to develop. But new software developments are arriving so quickly, that educators have barely time to experiment with one mode of delivery before they are overtaken by another.
