Summary/Abstract: Change, propelled by affordances of technology and the rapid development of educational technology tools, is coming to institutions and educators accountable for learning processes and student educational outcomes. For many in higher education, this change is already influencing how the educational experience is structured and how, and with what tools and pedagogies, students are taught. The responsibility of educators remains the – same supporting students and improving learning outcomes – but moving from more traditional approaches to education to more innovative, technology-enabled teaching and learning requires a re-thinking of the standards of practice and methods of evaluation.
