Introduksjon

LATINA/lab er et laboratorium for FoU og produksjon av e-læring for Høgskolen i Oslo og våre partnere.
Vi tar som gitt at papirtrykk ikke lenger er det normative skriftlige medium slik at akademiske formater som lærebok, den monografiske avhandlingen og paperet er i dyptgående forandring.
It’s not that print is bad. It’s that digital is better. It has too many advantages (and there’ll only be more): ubiquity, speed, permanence, searchability, the ability to update, the ability to remix, targeting, interaction, marketing via links, data feedback. Digital transcends the limitations of—and incorporates the best of—individual media. [mer]
Digital humanities is .. an array of convergent practices that explore a universe in which print is no longer the exclusive or the normative medium in which knowledge is produced and/or disseminated… This is the heart of digital humanities: Risk-taking, collaboration, and experimentation. [mer]
Digitalisering skaper dype endringer i samfunnsøkonomiens produktive kapasitet og struktur. Da oppstår det spenninger i forhold til etablert vane, forestillinger og organisasjons- og maktforhold.
As soon as we represent knowledge in some medium, such as a book or a diagram, that process reshapes it and the way it is learned. One challenge for research, therefore, is to decide how to represent the content and process of learning in a digital medium. [mer]
What if course portals, typically little more than gateways to course activities and materials, became instead course catalysts: open, dynamic representations of “engagement streams” that demonstrate and encourage deep learning? [mer]
Taxes cannot sustain what is essentially a 19th-century craft industry. This will open opportunities for new technology-enabled educational innovations in which the repetitive routine lecturing, administrative and related repetitive tasks are replaced with e-learning options, and the teachers—though fewer in number—will have more opportunities to serve as student mentors.

LATINA står for Learning and Teaching in a Digital World.
