Tools for digital learning

In this section, you’ll find an overview of the evolution of digital learning from web 1.0 through web 2.0 to web 3.0, and the arrival of mobile learning. Under each of these categories there are succinct accounts of the major associated digital tools, platforms and techniques, ranging from blogs and wikis through to virtual reality and augmented reality. The page about each tool typically contains an overview of the relationship of that tool to the various phases of web-enabled learning and mobile learning, followed by details such as what the tool is used for; why it is relevant to education; examples of educational uses; where it can be found or set up; particular implications for mobile learning; variations on and extensions of the basic tool; and any significant risks which should be considered.
