This chapter aims at shaping possible directions along with imagining the development and the evolution of the “i-Learning” paradigm. Specifically, three interdependent classes of future trends are depicted: technology-related trends and organization-related trends. In technology-related trends, it is analyzed the strong contribution that emergent technologies can provide to innovate learning processes. In particular, Mobile Learning Environments (MLE) and 3D Learning Environments (3DLE) are described with more details. Moreover, it is analyzed also the role of the Future Internet framework (promoted by the EU in the VII Framework Programme) into the learning industry. Finally, innovative Personal Learning Environment (PLE) and Cloud Computing spaces are presented and discussed. Referring to the organization-related trends, the model of the Stakeholder University is presented, discussed and analyzed. It is introduced as a new framework supporting competence development processes in twenty-first century, as an evolution of the traditional Training Departments, e-Learning Platforms and Corporate University archetypes.

Abstract
This chapter aims at shaping possible directions along with imagining the development and the evolution of the “i-Learning” paradigm. Specifically, three interdependent classes of future trends are depicted: technology-related trends and organization-related trends. In technology-related trends, it is analyzed the strong contribution that emergent technologies can provide to innovate learning processes. In particular, Mobile Learning Environments (MLE) and 3D Learning Environments (3DLE) are described with more details. Moreover, it is analyzed also the role of the Future Internet framework (promoted by the EU in the VII Framework Programme) into the learning industry. Finally, innovative Personal Learning Environment (PLE) and Cloud Computing spaces are presented and discussed. Referring to the organization-related trends, the model of the Stakeholder University is presented, discussed and analyzed. It is introduced as a new framework supporting competence development processes in twenty-first century, as an evolution of the traditional Training Departments, e-Learning Platforms and Corporate University archetypes.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
