Definition of E-Learning

E-learning is commonly referred to theintentional use of networked information andcommunications technology in teaching an

learning. A number of other terms are also usedto describe this mode of teaching and learningThey include online learning, virtual learning

distributed learning, network and web basedlearning.

Type of E-Learning

3



Self Paced E-Learning Online

Individualized self-paced e-learninonline refers to situations where an

individual learner is accessing learninresources such as a database or courscontent online via an Intranet or theInternet. Example. www.immibd.com

4



Self Paced E-Learning Offline

Individualized self-paced e-learning offlinrefers to situations where an individualearner is using learning resources such as database or a computer-assisted learningpackage offline (i.e., while not connected toan Intranet or the Internet). An example ofthis is a learner working alone off a hardrive, a CD or DVD.

5



Group-based e-learning synchronously

Group-based e-learning synchronously refers to situationswhere groups of learners are working together in real timevia an Intranet or the Internet. It may include text-basedconferencing, and one or two-way audio andvideoconferencing. Examples of this include learners engagein a real-time chat or an audio-videoconference

6



Group-based e-learning asynchronously

Group-based e-learning asynchronously refers to situationswhere groups of learners are working over an Intranet or theInternet where exchanges among participants occur with atime delay (i.e., not in real time). Typical examples of thiskind of activity include on-line discussions via electronicmailing lists and text-based conferencing within learningmanagements systems

The value of e-learning

Unsurprisingly, given that the respondents were drawnspecifically from a database of those interested in e-learning68% of respondents remarked that they thought that e-learning is, or could be, very valuable for their learning andteaching needs, 6% suggested that it was quite valuable, 17%that it was valuable, and only 11% were unsure or thought itinapplicable.

How to make e-learning more effective

Availability of hardware (particularly computers)• Faster Internet connectivity/improved bandwidth • Improved software • Appropriate policies favoring e-learning• Provision of technical support for e-learning at a range of scales• Lower prices for connectivity • Availability of reliable electricity

• Appropriate content in appropriate languages • Awareness raising about the value of e-learning• Improved training for teachers in e-learning at all levels

Advantages• Ease of access to information • Ability to supervise students at a distance • Safe digital environment for students to submit work • The potential for interactivity amongst and between learners and

teachers• Combination of both synchronous and asynchronous learning • Enabling of quality education for increasing numbers of students • Potential for re-use of content

• Students can learn at their own pace • Facilitates the management of student records • Helps motivate students
