EADTU 2015 Conference Scope
Technology-based teaching and learning lead to the transformation of higher education. Through new modes of teaching and learning, three complementary educational areas are emerging in European higher education: (1) blended and online degree education; (2) flexible continuous education and continuous professional development online, including new types of short programmes; and (3) online open education through OERs and MOOCs.
Although their costs and business models differ significantly, they are interdependent. Institutional development in higher education should embrace a holistic perspective, developing these areas separately, but also integrating them in practice.
