6. Key conclusions from this model
• Quality learning materials are assets. Good ones take significant
effort and resources to produce. Secure your investment in them.
• Investing in standards (XML, JPEG …) is cost effective, helps to
prevent legacy problems, ensures long-term reusability, and
allows greater vendor independence.
• It is more efficient to produce learning materials using a single
source publishing solution. 40-60% cheaper overall.
• A good way to deliver best practice learning designs and
environments is to work with a partner that does a lot of this.

8. The flexible learning spectrum
• Learning can be Individual, Cooperative or Collaborative.
• Individual learning provides much individual flexibility, but little
learning community.
• Cooperative learning provides much individual flexibility and
access to a learning community.
• Collaborative learning required participation in a learning
community, but limits individual flexibility.

9. Student centred learning
Each student needs to access the available resources,
human and machine, to facilitate their preferred style of
learning. The learning process might be tasked thus:
• Motivation – inspire and convince the learner of the
importance of the subject.
• Acquisition – absorb the knowledge from its source.
• Contextualise – apply the knowledge to a relevant
situation.
• Evaluate – assess if the knowledge is properly
understood.
