e-learninge-learningDefinition of e-learningDefinition of e-learning

E-learning is the effective learning process created by combining digitally delivered content with (learning) support and services

E-learning is the use of multimedia technologies and the Internet to improve the quality of learning by facilitating access to resources and services as well as remote exchanges and collaboration

e-learninge-learningDefinition of e-learningDefinition of e-learning

E-learning is NOT a database where student will find all information. Learning is always a process together with other students, using printed and interactive material and with a tutor available

E-learning covers a wide set of applications and processes, such as webbased learning, computer based learning, virtual classrooms and digital collaboration. It includes delivery of content via Internet, intranet/extranet (LAN/WAN), audio- and videotape, satellite broadcast, interactive TV and CD-ROM



e-learning resourcese-learning resources

Different types of resources

1. Enabling technology

2. Materials production

3. Learner Support

4. Resources Enabling the Implementation of standards



Enabling technologyEnabling technology

Learning Management systems (LMS) Authoring tools Learning content management systems

(LCMS) Virtual Learning Environments



Materials productionMaterials production

objects



Learner supportLearner support

Courses/training with built in blended approach Some Virtual Learning Environments Learning support platforms/systems Some learning management systems also include

learner support Synchronous conferencing systems Resources that demonstrate learner induction, on

going support and assessment

Associations dealing with e-learning professionals

Standard bodies (CEN, EifEL, BAOL…)Useful databases



Conclusions Conclusions from research of from research of

different resourcesdifferent resourcesResearch shows that resources with a degree of

complexity (!) are best rated among students/teachers. Independent of country of origin.

Example: Learning management systems or virtual learning environments that hold and deliver content with opportunities for tracking, assessment, learner support, administration and a variety of communication areas.



Conclusions Conclusions from research of from research of

different resourcesdifferent resourcesOne exception however; policymaking and addressing issues

of standards or quality in e-learning

UK and France seem still to be furthest developed in terms of national and regional policies and quality bodies. In UK the ”Training Foundation” has established certification of e-learning professionals. In France, EIfEL performs a similar function and is involved in draw-up quality standards accross EU.

Germany has ZFU (Staatliche Zenstralstelle für fernunterricht), Sweden has CFL (Centre for Flexible Learning)……….




e-learninge-learningFor e-learning to be effective, quality

resources are essential when starting up, but research also shows that another crucial factor in the success of e-learning is to develop the right mixture of ingredients for the specific learning needs of individuals, groups or companies.

Recommendations Recommendations for learnersfor learners

Ensure that the equipment meets the basic hardware/software requirements of the course and that you have appropriate skills on using the computer

Learn rules of conduct in web discussions or Netiquette and follow these rules

Allocate quite an amount of time and write a scheme for learning. If you learn at a workplace then discuss this schedule with your manager and co-workers

Try not to bother others with your studies and try to avoid learning in places where you can be disturbed



Recommendations Recommendations for learnersfor learners

Take a break of 20-30 minutes from e-learning Set realistic learning goals for yourself to reach Be active as a learner and reflect on what you have

learnt Create a peer group with other learners. It could be

face-to-face or through a virtual group Share what you have learnt with your manager and

coworkers Use all available resources




e-learninge-learning Good examples:

A community for sharing experience and good examples (established under a Leonardo-project- e3)

http://community.excellencecentre.net

http://www.vcp.biz is another virtual community with several resourcs in e-learning
