Learning Environment in the Digital Age: Supporting the Student

Abstract

Technology can be utilized in education in several ways. Here we study development of a modem learning environment that integrates information technology into the learning process. Modern learning environments have two main functions: they can help in using traditional and digital media in learning. In addition, learning environment provides information on the courses and studies. A learning environment is also important in managing the technology and media in the digital age. We argue that learning environme nts can become a valuable source of advice and support learning during the studies. The theoretical contribution of this article is recognition of key dimensions of the learning environment.
