MET9141: Learning, Cognition and Technology

This module aims to develop students’ advanced understanding of the relationship between learning, cognition, and technology, with emphasis on how educational theories apply in technology-mediated spaces. It equips learners to analyse the changing roles of instructors and students, evaluate the affordances and constraints of digital tools, and design strategies that enhance teaching and learning. By applying constructivist approaches such as collaboration, scaffolding, and problem-solving, students will strengthen autonomy, creativity, and reflective practice. Ultimately, the module prepares graduates to integrate research, ethics, and innovation in advancing education within diverse and technology-enhanced contexts.
