social learning > 2010+
Focus shifts to:1. Organisation has weak boundaries, strong presence
through resource-based, integrated learning networks, with open access, eg MIT & OU open courseware
2. Focus not on static content but on web-based, aggregated content
3. E-learning as understanding & conversation, just-in-time learning
4. Assessment of situated learning
