Teacher training in the Knowledge Society

Abstract

Integrating e-Learning in universities is a gradual process that can be implemented in a variety of ways, depending on the adoption of a greater or lesser degree of virtual resources leading to mixed, hybrid or semi-distant (blended-learning) learning models. Platforms are easy-to-use and provide a wide range of educational features through the multiple tools they embody. The aim of this paper is to analyse how the knowledge society has changed the way teachers share their knowledge and how technological platforms have been introduced into learning systems.
