The fact that we still refer to much of this enhancement as e-learning (and still disagree about what the term actually means) signals that the relationship between technology and learning is not as yet an entirely comfortable one. e-Learning still carries with it a sense of something 'other' and few institutions can say that a sound understanding of available technologies, their capabilities and current examples of appropriate usage, forms a cornerstone of the curriculum design process.</p><p>Within the academic community there remains a sizable proportion of sceptics who question the value of some of the tools and approaches and perhaps an even greater proportion who are unaware of the full range of technological enhancements in current use. Amongst senior managers there is a concern that it is often difficult to quantify the returns achieved on the investment in such technologies.</p><p>On the other hand those in the vanguard of technical developments are already signalling the 'Death of the VLE' (Stiles 2007) and heralding a new set of approaches based on a different pedagogic outlook and on the underlying technologies and social and collaborative tools that are collectively labelled the Web 2.0 phenomenon.</p> http://connect.educause.edu/display/46999#comments Assessment and Evaluation E-Learning JISC JISC ROI Strategic Planning, Institutional Students Contributed by Organizations or Campuses Articles, Papers, and Reports Mon, 30 Jun 2008 15:40:38 -0500 ckeller 46999 at http://connect.educause.edu http://connect.educause.edu/display/46347 <p>Los Angeles Community College District, in the midst of a construction boom, makes a push for renewable energy.<br /></p> http://connect.educause.edu/display/46347#comments Planning Strategic Planning, Institutional Sustainable Campus Contributed by Organizations or Campuses Articles, Papers, and Reports Tue, 04 Mar 2008 13:58:31 -0600 ckeller 46347 at http://connect.educause.edu http://connect.educause.edu/display/36295 Author Michael Townsley discusses presidential leadershipand its key role in campus technology use. http://connect.educause.edu/display/36295#comments Campus Technology Information Technology Management and Leadership Leadership Presidents and Senior Executives Strategic Planning, Institutional Strategic Planning, IT Contributed by Organizations or Campuses Articles, Papers, and Reports HTML Tue, 17 May 2005 16:35:13 -0500 drupal 36295 at http://connect.educause.edu
