Combination Learning

Learning through the flexible combination of two or more components. Source

The key idea here seems to be flexibility, both in the source and the extent of the learning content. A change of focus is also important, from the teacher to the student.
The final defining concept, is that there is no longer a container. Learning is open ended, and the extent and direction is now dictated, and governed by student choice.
