The document discusses flipping the classroom, which involves students learning new material at home via online videos and other resources before coming to class, allowing class time to be used for collaborative work, projects, and addressing student questions. It describes how educators are shifting from being the sole source of knowledge to curating information for students and guiding them to find answers on their own. Sydney TAFE is implementing flipped classroom techniques using tools like Moodle, wikis, blogs and Echo360 for creating and delivering video lessons and recording webinars.

Hyper-connected world is awash with content measured in exabytes,
or billions of gigabytes
Learners are placing greater value on knowing where to find
information rather than on knowing the information themselves
Solutions to problems are not from experts but from the wisdom of
networks
Social learning is more important than formal learning in distributed
networked work environments
