I’ve been flicking through Ben Shneiderman’s book Leonardo’s Laptop today and saw he’d written a section on e-learning in which he proposes a model for classroom and distance education.
| COLLECT | Gather information and acquired resources |
| RELATE | Work in collaborative teams |
| CREATE | Develop ambitious projects |
