As technology evolves to support an increasingly diverse range of pedagogic approaches, various kinds of technology-driven interventions have already been integrated into conventional teaching methods, which include web-based tools and mobile devices, social networking environments and computer games. Such integration is capable of providing platforms to support formal and informal learning experiences, in both blended and standalone contexts. Innovations in teaching and learning, promoting a knowledge society, and supporting tremendous growth in demand for highly educated and skilled individuals, are influenced by the advances in technology as well as the emergence of a new generation for whom technology is an integral part of the learning process. This generation is able to migrate between existing and new technologies, building socially driven communities, and has high expectations of fidelity and dynamics from virtual learning environments.
