A resource model for academic literacies integration

Part two: Drivers for the repurposing of the Learning Lab in 2011 New technologies -from flat screen to web 2.0 Use Web 2.0 technologies to enable active student-to-student and advisor-to-student interactions consistent with constructivist online pedagogies Smith and Caruso (2010) proposes that the integration of online technologies in tertiary study is dynamically evolving as cloud services such as YouTube, iTunes U, Facebook and Gmail are poised to be the next wave of applications in use in programs. Student demand Changing nature and commitments of tertiary learners as students spend less time on campus -Digital learners expect increased flexibility and connectivity There is a need to cater for a new generation of students who require ’ convenience, connection and control‘ in their learning environments (Caruso & Kvavik 2005, p. 9).
