Summary/Abstract: The slowly spreading, century-old paradigm of traditional learning was “overtaken” bymodern educational theories. Influenced by ICT, theorists of learning made a significant,impulsive turn, recognising the role of learning and knowledge sharing networks while stillrelying learning theory, instructional design schools such as behaviourism, constructivism andthe newest, cognitivism. This paper focuses on a contradiction related to the subject both inan institutional and a broader context and considered a critical element of this processrightfully perceived as progressive.
