MAKING THE CASE FOR TRANSFORMATIONAL LEARNING THROUGH TECHNOLOGY-MEDIATED ENVIRONMENTS
Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
In one university, shifting to technology-mediated learning environments represents a tension between its traditional, conservative history and its mission to reach out to underserved populations. At this university, the educational leadership department has undertaken two ventures to increase access to two different programs – one for principal certification and one for practicing teachers to obtain a Master’s degree in a cohort model. This article addresses the relational aspects that are important to promoting transformational learning, in addition to the logistic changes to be implemented in these two programs.
