Having attended DML2016 where many of the projects presented looked at informal learning, I realized that in certain contexts, there is an element that precedes motivation and engagement (see my previous post) and is even more fundamental: opportunity. In other words, I am extending my learning activities' boundary back even further to start with opportunity rather than motivation and engagement.
The opportunity to learn must not be taken for granted and, for many already motivated learners, the greatest contribution technology can make is to provide such opportunities.
That's it! I said its a postscript.
