Why is DLDA different?
Image: 'NBN in Plain English' - http://www.flickr.com/photos/89165847@N00/6357746413
National Broadband Network = NBN
• High speed internet• Faster than we can imagine• Changing the landscape
The new digital economy will have an impact on all Australian industries and will require every business,
community organisation and government department to be NBN-ready (Bowles, 2011)
“Over the next decade the NBN will change the way we teach online, in our classrooms, in
learners’ worksites and in homes”
National VET E-learning Strategy, 2012
NBN = Not just the digital fibre but the digital opportunities

What needed to DLDA?
Technology in itself is not likely to improve ineffective
teaching practice
Yew Tee & Shing Lee (2011)http://www.ascilite.org.au/ajet/ajet27/tee.html
To effectively incorporate technology into (or repurpose technology for)
education, educators need to know the affordances and constraints of
technology
(Abbitt, 2011)
