Learning should always come before technology. Many teachers welcome the idea of bringing new technology into the classroom. Ideas range from games based learning , to the use of socialmedia and networking, to simpler approaches such as the use of digital cameras in art or data logging in science. Let me elaborate.
After all, with the way technology has become interwoven into our daily lives, it only makes sense that our educational structure adapts to this shift to leverage the power of technology in the classroom. Children may not have access to technology. Well, you’re not alone. Teachers may have to create additional resources.

Does technology provide any realistic, sustainable solutions? Here''s a few ideas for you to consider: 1) Lecturers can make sure they maintain dialogue with their students through participation in socialmedia sites. 2) One popular socialmedia site - Twitter - is a different proposition entirely. But be careful.
I was a guest speaker in the MA in Elearning class at Cork Institute of Technology this morning. I don't want to come off today as making broad sweeping statements about all of education everywhere when I'm very much talking about the education system in the US and the education technology industry in the US. And that's surveillance.
So I started asking around, bugging individuals and querying socialmedia. Moodle – the popular LMS/VLE takes some backend skills to install and host, but can also be accessed from hosting services like MoodleCloud. — Learning Technology (@learningtech) May 17, 2022. The results fascinated me.
Below are four reasons why the Social Web and associated media are changing higher education. Although this is not the entire story, I believe we will need to adopt these and other new technology mediated approaches widely if we wish to secure the future of higher education.

How many times have we invested in technology, environments and curricula that is simply a waste of time and resources? The institutional learning platform - the VLE - is a classic case of decisions made about learning without consulting the learner.
Digital technology has unshackled learning, providing learners a wealth of opportunities to learn what they want to learn, how they want to learn, and where they want to learn with just a few clicks of the mouse. It can also be a virtual classroom tool or a virtual learning environment (VLE). What is a Digital Learning Platform?

Among other things, Jim Groom is Director of the Division of Teaching and Learning Technologies and adjunct professor at the University of Mary Washington, USA. He is nicknamed the 'Reverend' (oh the irony), and is a purveyor of American pop culture, experimental educational technology and out-of-left-field philosophy.
We discussed the evolution of socialmedia in higher education and also how institutional virtual learning environments (learning management systems) are being developed to cope with new demands of new learners. It's not easy integrating technology into education. It's complicated. Unported License.
But many of those folks utterly misunderstood Prince’s relationship to technologies – much like many, I’d argue, misconstrue what the Luddites in the early nineteenth century were actually so angry about when they took to smashing looms. And thus Prince was viewed by some as a Luddite. It was never about the loom per se.
For some time, educators have been subverting established methods and turning their backs on institutional tools and technologies such as the managed learning environment (also known as LMS or VLE). Learning by watching YouTube or participation in socialmedia discussions are certainly methods that are gaining traction.
This talk was presented at Coventry University as part of my visiting fellowship at the Disruptive Media Learning Lab. Indeed, we need to look at histories of the future and ask why certain people have wanted the future to take a certain shape, why certain technologies (and their stories) have been so compelling. I listen to stories.
