Influence of Digitized Environments on Learning and Teaching in Distance Education (DE)
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the way digitized environments are changing the nature of teaching and learning in distant education (DE). The questions that guided research for this paper were: what are digitized environments and learning spaces? In what ways have these digitized environments influenced teaching and learning in DE. Dramatic advances in information and telecommunication technologies have brought about what is referred to as digitized learning environments and new learning spaces in DE. The study concluded that digitized learning environment has opened unknown opportunities based on computer media, network, and hypertexts and hypermedia to name a few. The implications are that learning has become more self-directed, autonomous for both students and the teachers whose interactions have changed from content dominated to constructivist collaborative technology-based pedagogy.Downloads
