Designing for Learning in an Open World by Gráinne Conole provides specific information and research for acquiring the requisite skills to both design and support learning opportunities that harness the potential of available technologies. Further, the book proposes new, innovative learning pathways, created to empower learners to blend formal educational offerings with free resources and services. The new approach and new pathways suggested by the author force readers to rethink the entire instructional design process, enabling both teachers and learners to take into account a blended learning context, now the norm in our modern educational environment.
