What Could Possibly Be Problematic About Digital Learning?

Abstract

The triggers for research in this chapter into the disruptive aspects of ICT learning, teaching and assessment were from several sources. In my work over many years as a Quality Reviewer/External Moderator, I have been highly conscious of many tutors’ concerns around plagiarism in students’ work. This was not merely copying and pasting material that could be picked up either through software, such as TURNITIN and URKUND, or by typing phrases into Google and finding that essays supposedly written by students came up verbatim on the Internet; this was something far more sinister.
