OVERVIEW:

For over three decades both educators and technology experts have been advocating a revolution in training and education based on the application of technological advances.

The truly transformative ways in which technology can facilitate learning goes deeper than a mere change of form of the taught material. It addresses the very relationship between facilitator and learner, as well as between learner and learner, and into influencing the very material to be taught.
