Jamieson, P., Fisher, K., Gilding, T., Taylor, P. and Trevitt, A. (2000) Place and Space in the design of new learning environments. Higher Education Research and Development, 19(2), 221-236. Online

The development of online and virtual teaching and learning environments to augment formal face-to-face environments raises questions about the way the new communication and information technologies (CITs) are being incorporated into the on-campus environment. This paper highlights examples of recent developments of new learning environments which have been enhanced by the contribution of educational developers at several Australian universities. It also proposes a set of pedagogically informed principles to guide the development of on-campus teaching and learning environments which may feature the use of CITs.

Ascilite (Australasian Society for Computers in Learning in Tertiary Education) Ascilite is a society for those involved in tertiary computer-based education and training, including educational interactive multimedia.

McLoughlin, C. and Oliver, R. (1999) Instructional Design for Cultural Difference : a Case Study of the Indigenous Online Learning in a Tertiary Context. The 16th Annual Conference of the Australasia Society for Computers in Learning in Tertiary Education : Responding to Diversity. Flexible delivery of educational resources must take account of cultural variables and recognise the specific learning needs, preferences and style of learners. In designing instruction there may be a tension between the need to ensure access for a multicultural student population, while at the same time taking into account the need for localisation to accommodate learners cognitive styles and preferences. The acceptance, use and impact of WWW sites is affected by the cultural perceptions, values, needs and preferences of learners.
