Description
Advances in ICT have forced educators to rethink the best way to help students learn. Systems and models are being tried everyday in virtually every part of the world. For practitioners who welcome technological advancements and apply these new tools in their learning and teaching, finding the best way to make use of these tools is a challenge in itself. These new tools are capable of more than complementing the shortcomings of the traditional face-to-face classroom teaching; they are breaking boundaries as well as pushing new frontiers in education. This E-book contains ten research papers and case studies which examine the best blend of available technologies with conventional teaching methods. Cases include the creation of a Virtual Education Community, the use of YouTube, Second Life and many other blended learning examples.
