‘E-learning can contribute to all the government's objectives for
education - to raising standards, improving quality, removing barriers to learning, and,
ultimately, ensuring that every learner achieves their full potential’ (DfES 2006).

Specific features of digital technologies‣ connectivity
‣ ubiquity (almost)
‣ intimacy
‣ simultaneity (almost)
‣ continuous record
‣ data-at-scale
‣ interfaces that are interactive, intuitive, immersive...
situations and events are less self-contained, more ‘porous’ or leaky

‣ (Sub)disciplines: web science,digital media, internet culture,animation, gaming, GPS, networks, digital humanities...
‣ Interdisciplinary problems:digital bodies, globalisation,ethics, privacy, data security,digital divide, digital economy...
‣ What new areas of knowledgeare emerging in the scholarshipof teaching/learning?
Content: new things to know

‣ Students first experiencesof university/college are digital
‣ Institutions are dependenton digital systems
‣ Our students are (largely)digital learners
‣ Digital technologies, mediaand practices (continue to) originate and thrive in HE
‣ Connected universities → global market in learners
‣ Borderless universities → new modes of participation
Context: ‘digital’ institutions

‣ fewer traditional graduate jobs
‣ more non-traditional, informal ‘knowledge’ work
‣ 7-10 career changes, loose ties, portfolio careers
‣ constant upgrade (the capable self as lifelong project)
‣ alternatives to a degree: informal learning, online credits, OERs, MOOCs, TED talks, Kahn academy, Google...
‣ ‘a professional reputation carefully managed, an online portfolio’ becoming more valued.
Context: new challenges to the institution

Method: new ways of coming to know‣ Data collection, analysis, management, re/use:
what can be (done with) data?
‣ Secondary research: what andwhere is legitimate knowledge?
‣ Design, inc. research design
‣ Collaboration, inc. remotely
‣ Modes of representation, e.g.data visualisation, animation,virtual worlds, hypermedia, digital presentation...
‣ How are these impacts shared with students?

Method: new professional practices‣ Customers/clients/users as data to be managed
(diagnostics, analytics)
‣ Virtual as a space ofreal social/economicactivity
‣ ‘All high value work isknowledge work’?
‣ Blurring boundaries ofwork/play/life
‣ Personal and organisational ‘brand (identity?) management’

Networked learning?
‣ Actor network theory? Activity theory?
‣ Systems thinking? Educational cybernetics
