Abstract

As technology becomes increasingly pervasive, its role in shaping the context of learning continues to evolve. This requires lecturers to reconsider their pedagogic strategies to effectively integrate the use of technology into learning (Fisher & Baird, 2005). Research into defining student approaches to learning has led to a range of learning models being proposed and widely adopted. Such models have been largely developed in isolation from advances in the use of information communication technology (ICT) in education (Sadler-Smith & Smith, 2004). The use of ICT challenges established learning models, in the same way that businesses have had to adapt to the changing needs and demands of the e-consumer. This article seeks to explore the challenges that ICT poses to learning models and considers future trends in defining the stages of online learning.
