Digital Voices argues that the time is right for post-compulsory education to develop 'audio-enhanced learning environments.' The technology is readily available and usable and innovative academics and students are already using it. The recorded voice is being used to capture the knowledge, ideas and enthusiasm of tutors, students, peer groups and mentors, employers, professionals and the general public, among others, adding a new rich seam to the student experience. The book explores the potential of educational podcasting, user-generated media assignments, audio feedback and fifty other pedagogic approaches through essays, case studies and scenarios - all grounded in progressive educational theory.
Digital Voices itself is an example of innovative media-enhanced learning, featuring contributions from 24 practitioners who have worked together through the UK Media-Enhanced Learning Special Interest Group.
Digital Voices will be of interest to academics, developers and scholars of educational practice and innovation in the Digital Age.
