Disruptive or reductive Is this shrink-wrapped education?
Disruptive or reductive Is this shrink-wrapped education?
• “Digital Divide” places tutorial in the “educationally disruptive” category
• Wholesale adoption of ICT to deliver courses risks [further] alienating disadvantaged students (Romero, 2012)
• Interaction with instructors and peers ranked highly by distance learners (Shimoni et al., 2013)
• UCD Library Plagiarism Education workshops and in-class teaching counter balance this (low attendance at workshops)
• Recommendation: eLearning tutorial should form part of the package on Plagiarism Education
