This is an important questi...Hello Online Learning. This is an important question that should be easy to answer. Flexible Learning is not online learning. Online learning, along with the range of media you cite that might be grouped into a term called e-Learning, are methods useful to enabling flexibility in curriculum. But there are other, less technology focused methods - such as recognition of prior learning, block training, part time study options, self directed learning support, and many others. In a nut shell, almost anything can be used to enable people some flexibility in how they go about learning in a formal education sense (curriculum). Perhaps <A HREF="http://learnonline.wordpress.com/tag/flexible-learning/" REL="nofollow">my postings on flexible learning</A> will assist more thoughts on the matter?<BR/><BR/>In saying that, it is hard to ignore what online learning can offer in terms of flexibility, to those who have access - as you rightly point out. In NZ, <A HREF="http://learnonline.wordpress.com/2007/12/27/revisiting-content-is-not-king-connectivity-is-priority-karen/" REL="nofollow">2/3rds of its people do not have access to the kind of Internet</A> that would be useful for learning these days.Leigh Blackallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17845313396595646728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28701233.post-57787689699818044302009-04-02T08:20:00.000+13:002009-04-02T08:20:00.000+13:00In your post, are you considering online learning ...In your post, are you considering online learning to be the same thing as flexible learning? Or does flexible learning encompass mail in courses, dvd courses, reading books and doing workbooks on your own sans teacher, etc? One major roadblock to online learning, though it may seem obvious and may also be becoming less frequent, is lack of access to internet and/or computer of one's own. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for posting. It sure helps provide food for thought on this issue!Online Learninghttp://www.onlinelearning-insider.comnoreply@blogger.com
