Creating a Paperless Classroom with the Best of Two Worlds
Wang, Jeremy Fei
Journal of Instructional Pedagogies, v2 Mar 2010
The information age has presented unprecedented opportunities for educators to digitize traditional classrooms, an evolution that can empower instructors to extend the channels of knowledge dissemination and unleash the learning power of students from the manacles of physical classrooms. Since the early adoption of the Internet technology by educational institutions, various studies have been done to explore the conceptualization of the paperless classroom, focusing on its theoretical framework and impact on traditional learning environment. This paper aims to present a hands-on developmental framework that brings together the best of two worlds--online academic course management and industry-class collaboration into a state of-the-art paperless classroom.
