For a special issue of the International Journal of Services and Standards.

Undoubtedly, technology has become an integral part of all aspects of education, broadly covering curriculum planning and design, content development and delivery, knowledge transfer and management, communication among learners and instructors, assessment and programme evaluation.

In a technology-enabled learning environment, students can learn in new and more proactive ways. This aligns itself with ideas of student-centred learning. Technology-mediated proactive learning is now one of the important topics in the field for further investigation.

The intention of the issue is to disseminate research and share experience in technology-mediated proactive learning.

  • Blended learning in practice
  • Mobile learning and ubiquitous learning
  • Use of social media for learning
  • Computer-supported collaborative learning
  • Intelligent tutoring and advising systems
  • Learning platforms and content management systems
