4. The Salmon of Doubt (Douglas Adams)
• “Anything that is in the world when you are born is normal and
ordinary
• Anything that is invented when you are between 15 and 35 is exciting
and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it
• Anything invented after you are 35 is against the natural order of
things”

12. It has changed….
• How we learn - networked learning
• Why we learn - self-motivation and autonomy
• What we learn - facts vs skills/literacies
• Where we learn - anywhere we want
• When we learn - whenever we like
• From/with whom we learn - friends and peers, not ‘experts’
