Prediction 13Aug2009 ICI9-Zoraini Wati Abas The architects of education 2.0 predict that traditional universities that cling to the string-quartet model will find themselves on the wrong side of history, alongside newspaper chains and record stores. "If universities can't find the will to innovate and adapt to changes in the world around them, universities will be irrelevant by 2020.” David Wiley, Brigham Young University Founder of the Open High School of Utah http://www.fastcompany.com/magazine/138/who-needs-harvard.html

If you have a team filled with the younger generation ( Gen Y ), m-learning is likely to be welcomed with open arms . . . . we are used to getting information via cell phones and iPods , and are accustomed to accessing what we need when we need it . With its real time format and flexibility , m-learning is just too good to be true for us! http://corpu.com/weekly/article/mobile-learning/ 13Aug2009 ICI9-Zoraini Wati Abas

54. From a student’s email . . . 13Aug2009 ICI9-Zoraini Wati Abas You guys made a great difference by alerting we distance learners with questions & statements, keeping up all along the ODL module & tutorials, encouraging our learning. Our “lecturer,” helped and encouraged us to respond to the messages you guys posted, by creating a specific section in the forum for discussions of SMS’s. I strongly believe that this mode of on the move, two-way communicative learning methodology will be very beneficial and help to complement, the self-learning, the face to face tutorial and on-line learning.
