‣ Learning spaces: closed, private → open, public
‣ ICT provision: VLE → third party, open, networked, BYO
‣ Problems: narrow, structured → interdisciplinary, complex
‣ ‘walled garden : paths out’
What do students say they want?‣ New ways of belonging (to each other, their course,
their institution), including online
‣ Branding (institutionally distinctive) but also blending (seamless use of personal services)
‣ ‘The real people, in the real place, at the same time’ (but spaces can be hybrid)
‣ Clarity about contractual, freedom aroundinformal relations
Graduate Attribute Statementsa confident, agile adopter of a range of technologies for personal, academic and professional use (Oxford Brookes University)our graduates will be confident users of advanced technologies; they will lead others, challenging convention by exploiting the rich sources of connectivity digital working allows(Wolverhampton University)to be effective global citizens and interact in a networked society (Leeds Metropolitan University)
Technoliteracies must become reflective and critical, aware of the educational, social, and political assumptions involved in the restructuring of education, technology, and society currently under way (Kahn and Kellner 2005)
A critical response? Digital literacy/fluency
‘questioning the ends for which technologies offer themselves, as well as the means by which they are useful’ (2010)
A critical response? Double-loop learning
