Is SCoPE open to educational technology research as well? | |
Or is it only the functional aspect of educational research we are talking about? Baljeet |

Hi Baljeet, and welcome to SCoPE! Absolutely, we are open to educational technology research. In fact, I expect it will be a main focus for our activities. During the first phase of the SCoPE project we dropped the "e" from "elearning" in the community description, thinking that it might encourage a focus that may no longer be as relevant or necessary as it once was. What do you think? Was that a mistake? I encourage you to raise these questions and others in our SCoPE: Next Steps discussion where we are sorting through these types of issues. |

Thanks Sylvia. Well I feel the elearning is a big part of edtech. Besides we have lots of expertise here at SFU itself. Besides the people Paul mentioned at http://scope.lidc.sfu.ca/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=20 , we have Vive Kumar and Marek Hatala as well. I am sure they will be happy to contribute to a forum like this. I might be wrong here, but my impression is that elearning supporters will tend to use these kind of forums more often than people carrying out pure educational research. Regards B |
