Perhaps the answers aren't that interesting.
A decade ago, not only Avigail Oren, but a number of perceptive people, had numerous
interesting insights into the role of the internet in education. It seemed that
there was a great deal that merited examination. It didn't take too longer, however,
until e-learning became almost totally e-training, and technology pushed pedagogy
substantially out of the picture. To the best of my knowledge, it's been years
since Avigail has had accessible web pages (the quote is from a
saved page of my own). It would seem that the banalization of the educational
web caused an understandable waning in her interest in it. With all my criticism
toward the hype around Web 2.0 in education, I can at least be hopeful that it
can bring about a renewed interest in furthering serious pedagogical questions.
