Sustainable ICT in further and higher education

30.08.2010

 

ICT is becoming ever more ubiquitous within further and higher education, for e-learning, in research, e-administration and other ways. This creates many benefits, including ones of direct relevance to sustainable development such as improving accessibility for disadvantaged groups, and reducing environmental impacts by substituting virtual for physical activities (as when conferencing substitutes for face-to-face meetings).

21st Century Information Fluency

21st Century Information Fluency | Digital Learning - beyond eLearning and Blended Learning | Scoop.it

One of the most comprehensive approaches to developing information fluency among students and teachers.

Digital Information Fluency (DIF) is the ability to find, evaluate and use digital information effectively, efficiently and ethically. DIF involves Internet search skills that start with understanding how digital information is different from print information, knowing how to use specialized tools for finding digital information and strengthening the dispositions needed in the digital information environment. As teachers and librarians develop these skills and teach them to students, students will become better equipped to achieve their information needs.

Originally started as a project of the Illinois Science and Math Academy.

10 Tools for Increasing Engagement in Online Courses

10 Tools for Increasing Engagement in Online Courses | Digital Learning - beyond eLearning and Blended Learning | Scoop.it

Over the last few years I've done a lot of work developing writing and redeveloping online courses and course materials. In the initial rush to get learning online many organisations got themselves a Moodle platform and then attached a whole load of PDFs and .docs, added some forums and the odd video clip and called it an online course. It's no surprise then that drop out rates for online learning courses have been so high.
