Between the Chapters #8 reflecting on eLearning Standards with @LornaMCampbell & @philbarker

25 Years of Ed Tech

For this Between the Chapters book club episode, Laura is joined by Lorna Campbell and Phil Barker to talk about E-Learning Standards from Chapter 8 of Martin’s book. They discuss how learning resources were a challenge to define and became a challenge to standardize, as Phil said:

“We have to remember that learning is not something that’s delivered. Learning is an activity. Learning is not content. Learning is a verb and not a noun.”
