| Description |
Flexible teaching seeks to provide educational programs in ways that meet the changing needs of learners. Programs are designed to cater for a more diverse range of learners, learning styles, needs and interests than are normally catered for through conventional study programs. Flexible teaching, in the context of higher education, is concerned with the provision of a learning environment for students that incorporates a variety of access opportunities as well as a variety of learning modes. The learning opportunities of students are optimised by the expert shaping of learning environments within a particular course or program of study. Learners' access to and control over their learning environment increases, as they are able to select their most appropriate form of access and/or learning mode in relation to a particular course of study. Flexible teaching includes conventional teaching practices and learning modes as well as alternatives and options provided by various media including, but not exclusive to, the recent developments in communications and information technology.
