What is Learning Technology?
Learning technology is the broad range of communication, information and related technologies that can be used to support learning, teaching and assessment.

Socrates (via Plato) in Phaedrus on the dangers of writing:
...for this discovery of yours [writing] will create forgetfulness in the learners’ souls, because they will not use their memories; they will trust to the external written characters and not remember of themselves.

Invention of printing press raised concerns about information overload.

Learning… anytime, anywhere…

How Does Technology Enhance Learning?
• More use of technology?
• Increased efficiency of processes?
• Reproduce or supplement what you already do through technology?
• Transform teaching and/or learning processes and outcomes?

How to Evaluate Enhancement?
“Measures that are sensitive to the complexities of human interaction are more appropriate for gathering evidence of enhancement.” Kirkwood and Price (2014)
![Page 13: Introduction to Technology Enhanced Learning](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051122/58a783301a28abef478b5ca1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Audrey Watters:Need to ‘care’ for our technology otherwise
business (Silicone Valley) will appropriate education for its
own ends.
Diana Laurillard: Education adopts technology that has been developed for business.We have only begun to scratch surface of its potential.

Residents vs. Visitors (White & Le Cornu, 2011)
- a continuum of modes of engagement
- based on context and motivation
- doesn’t assume that ownership = capability
Digital Residents and Visitors

Digital Literacy
…. the capabilities which fit someone for living, learning and working in a digital society. (Jisc, 2015)
![Page 19: Introduction to Technology Enhanced Learning](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051122/58a783301a28abef478b5ca1/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Access ≠ Ability to benefit from resources
Digital Literacy

What is your context?(resources, practices of your
academic discipline,
expectations, challenges, etc.)

A student is not:
• a ‘product’ but a person,
• a customer but partner,
• a passive consumer of knowledge but also producer
and curator.
