Transformation from conventionallearning to information age learning
doesn’t happen by movingconventional learning into a VLE.
It requires a fundamental change in ways of thinking…

“No change is needed. The social and technical
changes are not relevant for education.
Besides, learning doesn't need to be fun.”

“The future of learning is informal and mobile.”

Education is still lagging behind the social change. Teacher students are in a key role!
