21. “The current learning landscape is constantly changing in terms of what is
learned, the context in which learning takes place, and who is
learning.”(Paas, 2011, p. 2) !
!
The following aspects impact on the learner or his/her learning:!
!
o Evolving needs of learners!
o Developing knowledge building environments!
o Focusing on personalisation!
o Evolving spaces for learning!
o Evolving learning devices or hardware!
o Evolving pedagogy!

23. Evolving Learning Landscape"
Current thinking about 21st century skills, and the learning
experiences that support their development, are essential
starting points for capacity building. A list of the workforce
skills presented by Davies, et al (2011, pp. 8-12) include:"
• Sense-making
• Social intelligence
• Novel and adaptive thinking
• Cross-cultural competency
• Computational thinking
• New-media literacy
• Transdisciplinarity
• Design mindset
• Cognitive load management
• Virtual collaboration

a pedagogic fusion between
environments, tools, formats
and meta-literacy capabilities.

Libraries, vol. 72, no. 1, pp. 62–78.

25. “Skills have become the global currency of 21st-
century economies” (OECD, 2012, p. 10). In this
context, skills are defined as the combination of
knowledge, attributes and competencies that
can be learned and that allow an individual to
successfully perform a task.
These skills can be built upon through continuous
learning.The sum of the skills available to any
given economy forms the human capital of the
country.”

29. The urgent dimensions of learning!
“The mechanisms for engaging with information and processes of learning in
the acquisition of new knowledge has become a deeper process of individual
and collaborative learning activities, problem solving and artefact
development, occurring through an integration of face-to-face and online
interactions within a community, involving absorption, integration and
systemisation of the information received by the receiver in their own pre-
existing cognitive structure, which are the result of personal experience, and
earlier knowledge transactions”.

35. Our students, voracious social media users, may be
hiding some of their story, faking perfection through their
perfect-only final product. But, there is no “faking out”
innovative educators – their teachers. Teachers know that
the process of getting there is less than a perfect road
and where the learning happens. The imperfect road
becomes the strength of the lesson. !

42. Microlearning: hungry for knowledge nuggets!
Microlearning ticks all the teaching boxes: bite-sized
nuggets of content are easy to digest, understand
and remember. Often mobile-friendly, visual and
sharable, the short bursts of information leave you
sufficiently satisfied and likely to come back for more.!
At the BI Norwegian School of Business, through a number of pilot programmes, they
have been adapting fragmented content to mobile devices, finding that the right mix of
mobile learning makes courses more engaging and also helps part-time students stay up-
to-date.!
