Quantity was more important than quality, because a rapid population of new digital spaces was deemed to be expedient - the pedagogy could wait. This strategy didn't work.

Instruction takes place outside the classroom and discussion follows in the classroom. If you subscribe to a kind of pedagogy where you believe that facilitating learning is more effective than direct instruction, you will probably recognise the potential. Most teachers by now will be aware of the concept of the flipped classroom.

I pointed out recently that many of the older theories of pedagogy were formulated in a pre-digital age. Sure, I''m being deliberately provocative here, but it''s needed discussion: Are the old models adequate, or are any of the new theories that are emerging more apposite, or more fit for purpose? I will be interested in your views.

This is assessment for learning (AfL) rather than assessment of learning, and it''s critical for good pedagogy. We had a wide ranging discussion about other kinds of assessment (diagnostic, ipsative, triadic, etc), and a deep and meaningful debate about the nature of knowledge. Formative assessment is when the chef tastes the soup.

Firstly, he argues, teachers tend to use new technology in much the same way they used old technology, and that as a result very little has changed in terms of pedagogy.
