Fieldwork is hot, sweaty, and difficult. It is especially elearning when it involves walking over fields, hills, and cliffs on sheep trails, but I would not trade it for anything in the world. During the academic year, I am stuck at my desk reading and writing, dreaming about the new discoveries waiting just over the next ridge top. The summers are my opportunity to get out into the sun and air to move around, and I am so happy that I was able to share the experience of the steep green hills and deep patchwork valleys of central Albania with a group of students.
The real world is far too technologically sophisticated. If an elearning student prefers blended learning strategies, you could speak at a convention. Instructors and students now have options! There remain problems with this technology, including e-book display devices and organizational aids. People also want more flexibility to take notes on them or the ability to read offline. In effect, the world is open. |
