The document discusses designing e-learning and outlines six themes for 21st century learning: 1) personalize learning, 2) deliberately diversify, 3) put knowledge to work, 4) rethink roles, 5) continue to learn, and 6) connect with community. It emphasizes using technologies to support these themes, such as giving students personal choice in learning, supporting diversity, making learning authentic, having students and teachers create knowledge together, supporting ongoing learning and inquiry, and connecting with families and experts. The document advocates considering how to apply these themes when designing e-learning.

10. WHAT’S THE POINT?
Ministry of Education, 2013

11. “
Since our education systems were first established
there has been enormous change in the nature of
societies,
change in the nature of work,
change in how knowledge is viewed, and
change in technologies, to name just a
few.
Those changes, and the certainty of ongoing
change, have implications for the kind of education
our young people require, and the focus of the
teaching and learning they experience
