Title: Learning from Digital Natives: Integrating Formal and Informal Learning
Abstract: This is a summary of a report of a study funded by the UK Higher Education Academy. The study suggests that students are increasingly making use of a variety of e-tools (such as mobile phones, email, MSN, digital cameras, games consoles and social networking sites) to support their informal learning within formalised educational settings, and that they use the tools that they have available if none are provided for them. Therefore, higher education institutions should encourage the use of these tools.
