Seminar: The ICT Revolution and the Transformation of Learning Spaces
E-learning technology is a set of communicative tools and pedagogy that is
revolutionizing education in some parts (perhaps more appropriately
hyperparts) of the world. In turn the tools themselves are rapidly
transforming by the demands of the globalizing effects to which they are
contributing. The rapid development of ICT over the last decades of the
20th century and associated with the globalization phenomenon is having a
profound effect, indeed revolutionary, on the future of education, even if
it is not yet fully appreciated.
The separation of institutional spaces from the learning spaces on which
educational institutions depend for their survival has been affected by
the processes of globalization -- with substantial effects on teaching and
learning.
Educational institutions in Europe, such as schools and universities, have
literally been the spaces for learning at least since the 12th and 13th
centuries and have become a global model for education both in terms of
the content and learning space since the 18th and 19th centuries -- though
not without challenges. The library, the classroom, labs, and lecture
halls, as well as paper, writing instruments, and printing presses
constituted a technology of learning that is today being supplemented,
some would say replaced, by ICT.
Prof. Linser will discuss the pedagogy and technology of web-based
role-play simulations indicative of emerging technologies in education
enabled by the transforming effects of globalization and the ICT
revolution. He evaluates the potential of this pedagogy and technology on
the basis of the argument that how we "learn" others (in the Old English
sense) is what they will learn and how we teach is what we teach.

Nota Biografica
Roni Linser arrived in Australia in 1976 and completed a combined honors
degree in political science and Indian studies. Since 1980 he has been
teaching in the Political Science Department at the University of
Melbourne, lecturing and tutoring courses in Western European politics,
political sociology, American foreign policy, Middle East politics and
history, theories of power, and world politics in transition. He has
published and presented conference papers on Middle East politics, on the
effects of new communication media on democratic politics, and on pedagogy
in political science.
During 1992-94 he worked with Andrew Vincent and John Sheppard at the
University of Melbourne on developing Middle East politics simulations via
e-mail. From 1995 until the present, Linser has been developing Web-based
simulations for political science subjects, including Middle East
politics, world politics in transition, Australian foreign policy, public
sector management, politics in the Asia Pacific region, and Islamic
political activism. In 1999 he has also developed a number of simulations
for the Australian Defence Force Academy.
