Description

This paper aims to suggest the direction of informal learning research using ICT in near future. In order to do that, I reviewed the previous research papers about overseas informal learning research using ICT, and introduce the findings from the results of the review. The results of review reveal the four categories of the effects of ICT use in informal learning; building of learning community, improvement of literacy, improvement of the use of learning strategies, skills and performances, and change of learning behavior. In the direction of informal learning research using ICT, the three viewpoints will be required; the bridge between formal and informal learning, the design principles of informal learning environment using ICT, and qualitative research about the role of ICT in informal learning. Informal learning research area plays an important role in clarifying the human learning system and further research is expected, considering privacy issues and daily life influences.
