Emerging themeso Growing eco-system of campus, blended, hybrid and open online courses, which would leverage the overlaps and synergies between different modes of delivery
o Rise in awareness to issues of learning design, evaluation, assessment and quality control, which are much more salient in on-line courses
o Importance of accreditation and verification schemes, specifically practice-based schemes (e.g. Portfolios) which would allow learners to demonstrate the skills they acquired to potential employers
