Thanks Geoffrey. Site is rich with information on classroom learning and technology and it also has links. Most importantly it tells of how technology supports learning beyond the four walls.

Thanks for your contribution.The cite gives insight on extending learning beyond the classroom.

I am amused by the contrast of going to school on the first day then and now. Time will come when you can attend school on the first day from your bedroom using a mobile tech tool and say hi Tutor!!!!!

Wonderful resource. It does not only talk about breaking down the walls, it goes on to tell us other wonderful practices like classes becoming collaborative.

True Geoffrey. The collaboration goes past the walls and makes them nonexistent

I agree with you Geoffrey. They are not limited by time too. Any time any where they can study.
They enables students to remain engaged.

True Geoffrey and Marg. Include the following: Technology promotes self-directed learning,provides far more access to many students bringing about a universal connectivity.

Thanks Julius. This is a rich site. It gives detailed information on how to go about incorporating technologies, what e-learning entails and its advantages and constraints. It shows how technology brings down walls.

Good work Julius. In this cite i have got insights on the virtual teaching and learning environments.

VITLE allows one to teach in a virtual classroom and makes teaching easy for non-technical teachers.

Good site. Thanks.

True Julius

you have real carried out research. this some great work Margaret

This is a good site Margrate. It gives tips on how to create learning spaces.

I like the emphasis on the importance of informal learning spaces.

The idea of integrating furniture that can be moved around easily and put in various configurations to accommodate different groupings is excellent.

once we copy a leaf from all these sites, we shall have beautiful learning spaces which will automatically motivate our learners

its real, teaching with technology. because its quite rich in technology enhanced pedagogical paradigms

This one almost gives all the possible learnig space.

True, it offers a variety.

I have liked the view ‘Make every space a leerning space’ in this resource.

I like that aspect of networked and collaborative learning spaces bringing the world to the classroom and vice versa.

Yeah. A very good resource I also came across this but I found that you had already posted it.

this is an educative site, however
my prayer is technology to be available to all school going age.
we shall have a wonderful learning space for all.

so long as it is flexible.
it will even encourage creativity amongst the learners

True Margaret. It also opens them to wider audience and enables them to share their experiences with others.

in groups and by use of technology, learners learn how to research and design new technologies and media that deliver powerful teaching and promote engaged learning

Breaking the walls simply means that classrooms should support the activities of effective learning: that is, situated, collaborative, and active learning.

You are right Maggaret. breakind down the walls also encompasses accessing technonolgy by using internet connected devices so that learning can take place anywhere. Students can get everything they need to assist them in their learning journey.

You rightly put Margaret. However, we must ensure they we help break down the walls, it is not merely substitution but move towards the high ladder of augmentation and redefinition.

Maggie, I like that idea of being able to use available space within (more creatively) and without as long as there is connectivity.
