Abstract

Learning is migrating out of textbooks and pre-set courses onto the web, via a series of new media - podcasting, blogging, social networks, etc. However, the new media require new messages, new pedagogical guidelines, and new, 'granular' formats, if they are to be effective. What are the parameters of the creation of new learning objects? What makes them effective? What are the pitfalls and common mistakes? Ken Carroll offers his insights.
