Another day, another theory. Today's entry is 'a-learning,' which puts the focus on skills rather than on education (OK, hint to the author: the 'e' in 'e-learning does not stand for 'education'). I'm a big supporter of using online learning for skills, which is why I'm listing this article, but I don't think we need a separate branch of theory in order to do it. I think the definition of 'a-learning' depends more on an unfairly narrow construal of 'e-learning' than it does any radical departure from what the field is up to now.
