Flexible learning

Flexible learning is a principle of practice in formal education, concerned with increasing flexibility in the requirements, time and location of study, teaching, assessment and certification [1]

History

Flexible learning saw significant development in New Zealand and Australia throughout the late 90s and early 2000s, along with investments in online learning.[2] It has become synonymous with online learning in recent years, but only because online learning is currently a primary focus of educational institutions, to achieve flexible learning among other things.
