Abstract

As human beings enter an information era, open education has achieved an unprecedented progress with sharing and integration of global education resources, and combination of information technology and learning. Nowadays people can learn from anywhere and at any time. Learners have more choices provided by different learning modes. With the development of open education, independent learning has become more flexible and convenient and develops itself into fluid learning while high-quality courses are emerging and learning styles are diversifying. This paper analyzes the features of fluid learning based on its conception and connotation. It also brings up technology development as a support for fluid learning and discusses the application scene of fluid learning from the perspective of rich media technology, learning analytics, multi-screen technology, information retrieval technology, and so on. In order to provide reference to other researchers and course designers, this paper uses constructivism, humanism, and other learning theories to explore the design of fluid learning model, system and serving pattern over the basis of the optimization of U-Learning, mobile learning, collaborative learning, and other learning styles.
