The HE Context “Harnessing Technology”Technology offers more than access to information…
E-learning allows a new relationship with learners to develop. It takes them beyond the confines of the traditional classroom, extending collaboration….
Encourage every institution to offer a personal online learning space to store
coursework, course resources, results, and achievements…for each learner, so that
