OK, I don't want to get all bogged down in theory here, but with the recent emphasis on pedagogy within e-learning we have a clash between past and future. This item and the next bring it out nicely.
CRLFCRLFThis paper is essentially a comparison between the principles of collaborative learning and the principles that seem to underlie good e-learning (that is, learning using information and communications technologies (ICT)). An essentially constructivist model of learning via ICT is developed (which is not surprising, given the development of the field). Learning using ICT is then depicted as drawing support from both the constructivist and collaborative models of learning, which suggests that the principles of the two theories could be used as a framework for evaluating learning using ICT.
