Information society studies in practice: a networked learning case study: student needs and feedback in the NETIS project.

Abstract

The Network for Teaching Information Society (NETIS) consortium has designed an Information Society studies curriculum aimed at university undergraduates. Courses can be delivered in various pedagogic formats including (appropriately) networked learning. NETIS has consulted students prior to developing this curriculum and trialled the learning materials in different contexts. The results of the consultation survey and the design of the monitoring instruments are discussed in this paper and some preliminary results from the trials are reported
