Is the Internet helping to create learning environments?

Is the Internet helping to create learning environments? An environment in which learning is facilitated is multidimensional. On one axis is the content producer/deliverer and on another is a learner. Regardless of the other axes, a learning environment requires a set of interactions between the former and the latter and the flow of information can be in either direction. What do the producers/deliverers need in order to use Internet-based resources as part of their "bag of tricks" to build a learning environment? What are the expectations, skill sets and experiences of the learners? This note reflects the author's experiences over a four-year time span in attempting to answer the question raised in the title. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Campus-Wide Information Systems Emerald Publishing

Abstract

An environment in which learning is facilitated is multidimensional. On one axis is the content producer/deliverer and on another is a learner. Regardless of the other axes, a learning environment requires a set of interactions between the former and the latter and the flow of information can be in either direction. What do the producers/deliverers need in order to use Internet-based resources as part of their "bag of tricks" to build a learning environment? What are the expectations, skill sets and experiences of the learners? This note reflects the author's experiences over a four-year time span in attempting to answer the question raised in the title.
