LEARNING IN CONTEXT

Situated Learning

Deeper Learning

  This section of the NLII Map of the Learning Space explores current research in learning theory, including effective practices for understanding and retention. The five principles for deeper learning put forward on these pages (OWNERSHIP, ENGAGEMENT, SOCIAL, CONTEXT, ACTIVE) provides a quick summarization of some current theorists on deeper learning, and access to a number of their readings. The summaries were developed by the NLII Fellows 2002, Colleen Carmean and Jeremy Haefner, as part of a larger research project on best practices in online learning.
