Donald, Claire; Blake, Adam; Girault, Isabelle; Datt, Ashwini; Ramsay, Elizabeth – Distance Education, 2009
Digital technologies have been used increasingly in open, distance, and flexible learning to both facilitate learning and depict learning designs. While the portable nature of a learning design once captured in digital form appears to offer limitless possibilities for sharing and reuse, dissemination initiatives have failed to thrive. This may be…
