Abstract

This electronic publication is based on the papers and discussions in the symposium "Learning and Technology – dimensions to learning processes in different learning environments" May 19 . 20, 1997 at the Department of Teacher Education, University of Oulu, Finland. The first day focused on discussing learning, especially learning processes in technology-based environments, while on the second day the focus was on the possibilities of technology to create new learning environments. The papers in this electronic publication reflect the variety of approaches that the Learning and Technology symposium brought together. On the one hand, they represent very well the complexity of the phenomena of learning even in the promising new learning environments, but on the other hand, they also reflect the variety of new models and practices for learning facilitated by technology. There are papers both in English and in Finnish.
