BLENDED LEARNING
The predominant model Elearning + face to face (f2f) instruction (in
any proportion) Can be as simple as email + f2f, or Email, plus websites, + f2f The most common: Learning Management
System (LMS) + f2f
![Page 5: eLearning - The BIG Picture](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052522/5549553db4c905fc4e8b4f8f/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Learning Management Systems – LMS (or Course Management Systems – CMS, orPlatforms)
Blackboard (now incorporates WebCT) Janison, Moodle
They comprise:
1. Learning materials (content)
2. Communication tools (mail, chat, Instant Messaging, Forum/discussions, blogs)
3. The Back End: Tracking tools – student profiles, grades, attendance patterns

Proprietary v Open Source
Proprietary Expensive Locked in to fixed product for extended periods
Open Source Free or very cheap Host can modify product as often as desired
![Page 7: eLearning - The BIG Picture](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052522/5549553db4c905fc4e8b4f8f/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Next/Back Learning
Content for whole course prepared and loaded upfront (expensive)
Minimal input from instructors; essentially unfacilitated
Self-paced; individualised Suitable for compliance or product
training, or for highly motivated students

The Internet – more than just a book

Facilitated Learning
Involves processing of content
PLUS Communication activities (discussion) with
fellow students and facilitator Strong social and/or collaborative
component

eLearning 2.0(Networked Learning)
![Page 12: eLearning - The BIG Picture](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052522/5549553db4c905fc4e8b4f8f/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
eLearning 2.0/Web 2.0(Stephen Downes) eLearning 1.0 was static packaged content developed by content
developers such as CD-ROMs and courseware. It had little true interactivity and learner input and very little (if any) contact with a tutor.Best represented by Learner Management Systems. (eg WebCT) Some packaged content and some provided by the teacher. There is more interaction with a teacher and some with peers (through forums and chat).
eLearning 2.0 will follow a student-centred model and will be centred around the Personal Learning Environment using social software. Students generate and share content. They interact not only with teachers and their peers, but with anyone in the world they can learn from.

SOCIAL SOFTWARE
Social software lets people rendezvous, connect or collaborate by use of a computer network. (Clay Shirky)

SOCIAL SOFTWARE TOOLS
Email Instant Messaging (Skype) Virtual classrooms (Centra, Elluminate) Blogs (blogger.com, edublogs.org) Photo Sharing (flickr.com) Wikis (Wikispaces.com) – collaborative workspace Social Bookmarking (http://del.icio.us/) Personalised learning environments, or PLEs
