This document outlines the structure and agenda for a workshop on technology-enhanced learning. The workshop will have three main sections:
1) Hindsight - Three disciplinary perspectives on the concept of literacy will be presented.
2) Insight - Presentations will discuss trends, disruptions, enablers and barriers relating to literacy.
3) Foresight - Participants will discuss in small groups whether schools, higher education and tertiary education need to transform to enable new types of learning, and if so how and under what scenarios.
The workshop aims to explore relationships between user-generated content and learning, and how educational institutions can adapt to learners' informal digital interactions.

2. Structure Hindsight – three ‘short’ disciplinary perspectives on “literacy” Insight – What are the “literacy” trends, disruptions, enablers and barriers? Foresight – Should Schools/HE/tertiary be transformed to enable new types of learning, and of so how, and under what scenarios? Summing up
3. Questions What relationship is there between user-generated content, user-generated contexts and learning? How can educational institutions cope with the more informal communicative approaches to digital interactions that new generations of learners possess?
4. Does the notion of ‘learner-generated cultural resources’ represent a sustainable paradigm shift for formal education in which learning is viewed in categories of context and not content? What are the issues in terms of ‘text’ production in terms of modes of representation, (re)contextualisation and conceptions of ‘literacy’? Who decides/redefines what it means to have coherence in contemporary interaction?

7. Foresight – Should Schools/HE/tertiary/WBL be transformed to enable new types of learning, and of so how, and under what scenarios? Break down into small groups, work for 20 minutes on answers to Foresight, 5 minutes for each group appointed speaker to feed back After each group feedback Margit, Elizibetta & John facilitate discussion.
8. Summing up Margit, Elizibetta & John all get to sum up what for them are the key themes under the headings literacy Hindsight, Insight & Foresight
