Pre-Net theories
• Were developed in a world in which
communication was expensive,
geographically restricted and the
information and content scarce.
• Include Behaviourist, Cognitivist,
Constructivist, Sociocultural,
Neuroscience.
• Continue to be useful because
emerging technologies are often
applied to the same challenges and
problems that originally inspired
educators and researchers.
• Some of these theories have evolved
by incorporating elements of the Net.
Net-Aware theories
• Understanding learning in a
connected society with
abundant access to information
and enormous communications
capacity that have created many
forms of interaction and
collaboration.
• Network-centric learning
theories support emergent
pedagogies.

connections and interactions
between learners, teachers and

from critical dialogue and enquiry.

and dialogue.

Conclusion:
Employing emerging technologies to
further educational goals may
necessitate the development of
different theories, pedagogies and
approaches to teaching, learning,
assessment and organisation.
Emerging pedagogies help us
experiment with different lenses
through which to view the world and
with different ways to explore such
ideas and practices as knowledge,
learning and collaboration.
