True Walter. If they can do all this without being pressured to stick to the traditional ways, even those walls they see will cease to cause them any discomfort. Hence breaking the walls.
-
exactly

-
So true walter, the students are infact given a challenge to think out of the box!
-
True Walter. It’s not physical breaking down of the walls but rather the flexibilty that comes with technology allowing learning to take place beyond the confines of the classroom.
-
they always advice us always to think outside the box and this is what all this is about

With all these mobile devises available they can continue working away from class.

7.4 Technology Group 9 years, 5 months agoMy position is you do not really need to bring down the physical walls to integrate technology into learning. Technology and innovative learning design can break down classroom walls in a virtual sense and that is sufficient for social learning styles of the future. My reasons will follow soon.

Very right Edward. It’s true the classroom walls are not physically broked down.

Of course breaking down the walls is figuratively used to refer to the act of extending learning beyond the traditional Classroom by the use of technology.
-
Willex, it may also refer to using the available space within the same walls or institution more creatively or better.
