Transiting into the Technology-enhanced Learning Spaces: A Snapshot of a Polytechnic Scene in Singapore

Abstract

More and more educational institutions across the world are looking towards Information Technology (IT) to enhance learning. In Malaysia, the call to incorporate IT into Education was initiated by the local authorities and traditional teaching has been transformed to include new technology and constructivist approach (Neo & Neo, 2010). In Taiwan, the race to speed up IT comes in the form of mobile learning (Lan & Sie, 2010). In Singapore, institutions are looking towards telepresence technology which embodies new learning approaches such as online lessons and online consultations to enhance learning. This proposed study looks at how such ubiquitous technologies have encroached into our learning spaces and how we can better support stakeholders in transiting from the old learning spaces to such new entities.
