Presentation by Ulf-Daniel Ehlers (University of Düsburg-Essen, EFQUEL, Germany; science-without-borders.org) at the 1st World Summit of the Open Knowledge Society, Athens, 24-26 September 2008. Track: Knowledge, Learning, Education, Learning Technologies, and eLearning for the Knowledge Society.
Ulf Ehlers pointed out three teaching strategies: Transfer, Tutor, and Coach as well as the changing faces of E-Learning: from distribution to collaboration and reflection (from transmissive to expansive learning).
What is e-Readiness: 7 core components (social context, content delivery, technology access, learning style, collabroation capacity, organisational learning, environment and personal motivation) and 5 challenges (technically means, autonomy in web use, e-skills, level of social support, variation in motivation) (cf. Ipsos Mori 2006, Psycharis 2005). In the paper, the author set up a framework for E-Readiness and its assessment.
