Introduction
Participants will be introduced to the fundamentals of facilitating learning in the digital age. They will explore the changing role of educators and learners and how to effectively facilitate learning in the digital age. They will also critically evaluate how learning through digital technologies can transcend the physical learning space and the changes that need to be adopted in pedagogy to align with that reality. Using a blended learning approach, participants will experience e-pedagogy first hand - how learning is facilitated seamlessly from one learning space to another through technology mediation.
