Description

The 'e-revolution' that has swept the higher and further education sector over the last decade is now starting to make a real impact in school-level teaching and learning around the world. Within the global community there is a burgeoning interest in, and demand for, open and distance learning solutions for schools. Improved technology presents new opportunities for improving access (for the children of travellers, or for those in geographically remote areas, for example) and for improving pedagogy for more 'conventional' teaching (by offering teachers, parents and pupils greater support and access to learning resources). The Open Classroom features contributions from leading experts around the world, including the United Kingdom, the United States, New Zealand, Canada and India. It outlines the crucial issues surrounding in- and out-of-school distance learning, provides best-practice examples and also inspiring case studies that illustrate both established success stories and the latest groundbreaking developments. Contributors consider the following broad issues: * classroom e-learning and the knowledge society; * audiences for classroom e-learning; * classroom e-learning methods
