Future Developments

The chapter outlines three key features of future learning: personalized, informal, and scientific. Personalized learning allows learners to define their own learning objectives. Informal learning extends learning beyond the classroom and offers flexibility. Scientific learning is based on scientific evidence, such as big data collected from learning platforms, to enhance learning experiences and outcomes. In relation to these features, future learning environments are advancing in three directions: blended, immersive, and smart. Blended learning environments thoughtfully integrate online and face-to-faceFace-to-face learning, enabling learners to continue their learning experiences anytime anywhere. Immersive learning environments create a sense of being there, even when learners are physically not present.
