Designing Technology-enhanced Learning from a Process-oriented Perspective
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper discusses the theoretical framework and the process-oriented model guiding the introduction of Technology-Enhanced Learning (TEL) at the Faculty of Education, University of Malta. The Programme in TEL (PiTEL) evolved from the previous ‘Programme for the development of Resources in ICT Education’ that promoted the acquisition of a range of competences in use of ICT applications, especially those for developing instructional resources. The new programme addresses a number of demands arising from the current national socio-economical reality that constantly challenges educational and training institutions to tune to learners’ evolving needs in a knowledge society. The current political drive to align all sectors of the national economy, ranging from micro-electronics, tourism, health and national heritage, on research and innovation demands skills in creativity, design and innovation. The job market increasingly demands skilful interaction with digital technologies especially in the context of learning and research communities.
