The Information Superhighway and Individualised Learning

Abstract

In recent times there have been considerable advances in both communications technology and in the psychological understanding of the factors affecting individualised learning. The technological developments have resulted in the establishment of the Information Superhighway, which permits the interactive transfer of information on a world‐wide basis. Psychological studies have considered the effect of individual characteristics such as prior knowledge, intelligence, personality and cognitive style on learning performance. Separately these developments have consequences for education and training, but their effect is very greatly enhanced when they are integrated. This paper considers some of the implications and possibilities of this integration.
