Paper Abstract:
|
A major trend in higher education is in the use of Web2 technologies so that the learner becomes a creator of knowledge rather than a consumer of the knowledge created by experts. There is a need in doctoral education to theorize and provide a robust framework for the utilization of social learning media to create a multifaceted platform for the practical support to help with the conceptualization of the supervision process. In this paper, we propose the design of such a platform. |
