Our students have changed radically. They are no longer the people our educational system was designed to teach."
Marc Prensky

Welcome to our Learning Conference!
We have created this site to act as your main 'hub' of learning for the week, as we endeavour to deepen your understanding of Online Learning Theory. Our plan of attack is two-fold:
To look at the theory through the lens of three popular learning theories (behaviourism, constructivism, and cognitivism)
Lead you on fun and interactive activities that both reinforce the ideas AND show off some cool apps that you could use for similar purposes in your own lives! We hope you take part, and enjoy!

Construct Meaning
Constructivism means creating meaning through contextual learning. Allow us to facilitate your discussion towards e-learning and constructivism.
For Pavlov, it was a bell, some dogs, and drool.
For teachers, is it students, text-alerts, and learning?
