Networked Learning Conference 2004 |
Proceedings / Symposia / Symposium 4 / Papers
Organised by: Grainne Conole
ABSTRACT
This symposium will consider methodological issues, which arise both from research
using Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and research into
the use of ICT in learning and teaching. The symposium will begin with an
overview of current research questions and a critique of methodological issues
and common data collection and analytical techniques used in the area. It
will then explore the relationship between theory and methods and research
methodological issues in e-learning. Three case studies of specific examples,
which explore these issues in more detail, are then presented.
