Where Were We before WWW









HEUTAGOGY - the study of self-determined Learning















Etymology: Heuristics - To discover or find out








Inventive or Experimental - a trial and error procedure



The Art of Discovery



Learning is natural - like breathing



We now have the Internet



Multimedia



Virtual Learning Environments



Social Networks




Does Teaching only depend on delivery to children or adults?



Are the rules for Pedagogy those of Plato and Confucius and those for Andragogy those of Jean Paul Sartre and Knowles?



Are the rules for e-learning those of Heutagogy?



Is the timeline of Learning technology (technology being the ability to meet a human need) simply:


Pedagogy - Andragogy - Heutagogy?



Without questions we can have no answers.


Questions are the most interesting part of Learning - do you think so too?


Welcome to the newly evolving species - Humans Internetus
