An AMC Horizon project published an article on digital literacy in higher education.  The technology behind digital literacy in higher education is Adobe to provide close to the traditional content delivery method in higher education. Abode can support content creators of learning materials to include video, web, and graphic tools that enrich what is being delivered to students. Also, Adobe technology supports instructors in modifying and quickly recreating learning materials to best suit their students' learning needs. These capabilities provide educators to provide in-depth instruction to students to understand content related to a subject matter.



An additional advantage of digital learning that uses Adobe technology is the ability instructors can create an expression that includes emotional intelligence that helps students link learning ideas to their past experiences. This capability is making learning more appealing and applicable to students.

Adobe technology can provide additional ingrate elements, including students working as teams on different projects irrespective of their locations. This capability helps students from different skills come together to work on projects, be creative and innovative.

Students can access Adobe technology from a wide range of devices.  The growth of the software and hardware development is also supporting the access and adaptability of Adobe learning platforms from handheld devices. Students are getting used to software and media creation software that is increasingly available in many educational sectors (Majchrzakb, 2019). The increasing trend in students developing the habits to use such devices to master the new learning concept supports the Adobe learning platform.

Serendipity, Error, and Exaptation

                   Serendipity, a happy discovery, is when one can make an unusual connection of ideas to create something new. Serendipity, according to Mirvahedi and Morrish (2017), is “finding and exploring new things is, however, believed to be a result of “accident and sagacity”, rather than accident or luck alone” (para. 5). Serendipity is a micro-learning experience that leads to a groundbreaking discovery (Björneborn, 2017). Steve Jobs, for example, was able to connect the idea between the use of iPhone and the music library. In his serendipity, Steve Jobs created a pathway for innovation. His approach was realized through the approach he was pursuing – not dividing the company’s functions into different areas and all employees to work with each other. His style of leadership led to inventions where he put his engineers have constant contact with each other that lead to serendipitous opportunities, which arise from regular interactions between employees – the engineers in thi

Technology and Learning Approches

  The sociotechnical aspects of formal, informal, and non-formal learning approaches in the traditional educational system in Brazil are presented in the research paper. The approaches and meanings of formal/informal/non-formal learning approaches in children’s education require an understanding of the cultural and emotional learnings. Also, these learning approaches require an understanding of other interests and challenges children face in using technology in their learning.   In explaining the research approach, the researchers attempted to address affectiblity, the approaches new technology to be adopted for children to make better use of it and evaluated the integration of new technology in different learning situations, and the implications of the school’s culture on the adoption of new technology in schools. Culture plays an integral role in informal learning (Schürmann & Beausaert, 2016). Although it is widely considered new technology is part of the society, the integr
