E-Learning-Why?
Political reasons- new paradigm in European and national education
![Page 6: Eurosoil Freiburg 2004 – Education in Pedology](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062408/568135d1550346895d9d3700/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
E-Learning-Why?
Political reasons- social and economical aspects
![Page 7: Eurosoil Freiburg 2004 – Education in Pedology](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062408/568135d1550346895d9d3700/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
E-Learning-Why?
Political reasons- new paradigm in European and national education
Paedagogical/didactical reasons- integration of media, modular- individual learning/ group learning- interactivity
?

E-Learning-Why?
Political reasons- new paradigm in European and national education
Paedagogical/didactical reasons- integration of media- individual learning- group learning
Personal reasons- reduction of classroom lectures- interest in new media technology
Strategical reasons- development plan of university- co-operation between international institutions- curriculum standardization

E-Learning - in Soil Science - Why?
Multimedia allows a first approach to soils, where nodirect sensual contact is possible.

E-Learning - in Soil Science - Why?
Presentation of soil variability is facilitated (virtual excursion).

E-Learning - in Soil Science - Why?
Soil processes can be animated.
![Page 12: Eurosoil Freiburg 2004 – Education in Pedology](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062408/568135d1550346895d9d3700/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
E-Learning - in Soil Science - Why?
Soil processes can be interactively modeled.

Important aspects
Introduction of e-learning is impeded by:
1. a combination of the absence of a coherent and comprehensive management approach to ICT integration with a degree of resistance to change in the university culture,
2. lack of knowledge of academic staff concerning the potential and new ways to use it,
3. a shortage of high-quality teaching material,
4. a lack of budget and incentives,
5. Missing adapted regulations concerning intellectual property rights and payment systems aimed at increasing the sharing and re-use of learning resources.

Experiences with pure e-learning
1. High drop out rates.
2. Students request printed versions of the materials in addition to study anywhere, and have the ability to annotate the printed materials.
3. Students tend to study the materials linearly.
4. Strong desire for online communication mechanisms, however, the discussion boards provided were little used by any of the students.
5. Proposal for timed units.

Questions to be asked before starting e-learning units
What are the needs, requirements, and preferences of learners?
Can we be sure that the technological infrastructure is reliable and adequate?
... that the pedagogical and graphic design of the content is of high quality?
... that the level of interactivity is appropriate?
... that students can reliably access the relevant portal on a regular, reliable and convenient basis?
![Page 22: Eurosoil Freiburg 2004 – Education in Pedology](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062408/568135d1550346895d9d3700/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Summary: E-learning....
... implies organisational change (i.e. teacher/tutor training)
... needs adapted curricula
... is improved by participative course design methods
... should be object/project oriented
... has to consider social and cultural context
... has to respect students skills (including digital literacy)
... needs to be useful, practical and motivational
... should enhance teamworking
... needs evaluation and quality control
... does neither need less time nor less budget
