The world is becoming increasingly digital. What was largely analog less than 30 years ago – dealing with authorities, submitting applications, communicating – now works primarily via the internet. The speed of transformation is constantly increasing, meaning that traditional educational institutions and formats such as schools, classroom training and seminars are often no longer able to respond quickly enough to the changing challenges.
New and more flexible forms of education are the main remedy here. Formats such as blended learning, hybrid and digital learning enable people with a wide range of learning needs to prepare for the demands of the modern working world, find their way around the internet independently, help shape the transformation and take education into their own hands. The supply is growing just as fast as the demand – the World Wide Web is practically teeming with countless learning opportunities. But how do I choose the best offer? What educational formats are there? What are their advantages and disadvantages? What are examples of successful formats and which should be avoided?
In order to provide answers to these questions and cut a clearing in the jungle of learning opportunities, the aconium Academy has launched a new and free learning series that provides everything you need to know about digital education. The first article, which has already been published, defines the terms and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of hybrid, digital and blended learning. Over the course of the series, the academy’s experts will explain what web-based training is, what makes good explanatory videos, the potential of game-based learning and virtual reality and much more.
For people with little time, the Academy also posts the content of its articles in summarized form here on LinkedIn.
