Paper Abstract:
|
Digital technologies are revolutionizing all parts of society, including higher education. Universities are rapidly adapting to the prevalence of staff and student mobile devices, digital tools and services on campus, and are developing strategies to harness these technologies to enhance student learning. In this paper, I explore the use of digital technologies to support blended learning in universities, and discuss how massive open online courses (MOOCs) can be improved through better understanding of successful use of technology, communication and collaboration in such scenarios. |
