Technology-Enhanced Learning A Kaleidoscopic View Nicolas Balacheff, Sten Ludvigsen, Ton de Jong, Ard Lazonder, and Sally Barnes Abstract The purpose of this book is to present and discuss current trends and issues in technology-enhanced learning from a European research perspective. Being a multifaceted and multidisciplinary topic, technology-enhanced learning is considered from four different viewpoints, each of which constitutes a separate part in the book. Parts include general as well as domain-specific principles of learning that have been found to play a significant role in technology-enhanced environments, ways to shape the environment to optimize learners’ interactions and learning, and specific technologies used by the environment to empower learners. A postface part is included to discuss the work presented in the preceding parts from a computer science and an implementation perspective. This chapter introduces the origin of the work presented in this book and gives an overview of each of the parts. Keywords Technology-enhanced learning
1 Introduction This book builds and capitalizes on the work carried out in the Kaleidoscope Network of Excellence financed by the European Commission from 2004 to 2007. Networks of Excellence (NoE) are a new type of instrument that was first introduced within the 6th Framework Program. Networks of Excellence primarily aim to strengthen European research areas in all sectors, but may be especially relevant to emerging areas – which is the case of research concerning technology-enhanced learning (TEL). This book does not describe Kaleidoscope itself, but focuses
