abstract |
Educational technologists usually appeal to psychological theories rather than technological
opportunity to motivate the introduction of new approaches to support learning. In
this paper we list key developments over the past fifty years and distinguish approaches
that have a convincing theoretical base from those that were really driven by ease
of access to interactive computing facilities. We then look at the recent impact of
new technologies on individual and group student learning. We take a strong position
that we now have new topologies for learning which have no direct analogues in past
educational practice. These positive educational developments are occurring because
of relatively cheap access to almost ubiquitous computing and because of the maturity
of a range of artificial intelligence derived search and indexing mechanisms that
are now easy to use. We consider the barriers to effective deployment of these new
approaches by educational institutions, paying particular attention to the need to
devise new approaches to formative and summative assessment. |
