WHAT IS E-LEARNING?
E-Learning is the use of technology to enable people to learn anytime and anywhere.
The letter `e’ in e-learning stands for the word `electronic’.
E-learning pioneer BERNARD LUSKIN(2001) explains `e’ as exciting, energetic, enthusiastic, emotional, extended and educational.
E-learning (or eLearning) refers to the use of electronic media and information and communication technologies (ICT) in education.
E-learning is internet-enabled learning.It is a store house of education, information, communication, training, knowledge and performance management.
TRADITIONAL & E-LEARNING APPROACH
Traditional Classroom E-Learning
Classroom • Physical – limited size• Synchronous
• Unlimited• Anytime, anywhere
Content • PowerPoint/transparency/etc• Textbooks/library• Video• Collaboration
• Multimedia / simulation• Digital library• On demand• Syn & Asyn. Communication
Personalization • One learning path • Learning path and pace determined by learner
DELIVERY METHODS OF E-LEARNING
Synchronous learning Asynchronous learning Instructor-led group Self-study with subject expert Web-based: blog-Wikis-forums Computer-based (CD-ROM) Video/audio streaming
DELIVERY METHODS OF E-LEARNING
Synchronous learning: Within synchronous learning; learning and teaching takes place in real time (same time) while the trainer and learners are physically separated from each other (place shift).
Example of Synchronous learning are as follows: Audio / Video Conference Online Lectures Internet telephony
DELIVERY METHODS OF E-LEARNING
Asynchronous learning: Characteristic for asynchronous learning is the fact that that the trainer prepares the courseware material before the course takes place. The learner is free to decide when he wants to study the courseware.
Example of Asynchronous learning are as follows: Video Taped Classes Stored Audio / Video Web Presentations Self Paced coursed on Internet or CD Rom.
E-LEARNING TOOLS
E-mail: Every teacher should have an e-mail account to communicate with students , parents & colleagues, send & receive student’s assignment.
Blogging: Allows students and teachers to post their thoughts, ideas, and comments on a website. Blogging allows students and instructors to share their thoughts and comments on the thoughts of others which could create an interactive learning environment
E-LEARNING TOOLS
Video: Videos allow teachers to reach students who are visual learners and tend to learn best by seeing the material rather than hearing or reading about it. Teachers can use messaging programs such as Skype,, or webcams, to interact with guest speakers & experts
Screen Casting: Allow users to share their screens directly from their browser and make the video available online so that the viewers can stream the video directly. The advantage of such tools is that it gives the presenter the ability to show his ideas and flow of thoughts rather than simply explain them.
BENEFITS OF E-LEARNING
Convenient: Class work can be scheduled around personal and professional work
Cost Effective: Reduces travel cost and time to and from school
Flexibility: Learners may have the option to select learning materials that meets their level of knowledge and interest
Learners can study wherever they have access to a computer and Internet
Self-paced learning modules allow learners to work at their own pace
BENEFITS OF E-LEARNING
Collaborative learning: Computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) uses instructional methods designed to encourage or require students to work together on learning tasks. There by developing social skills.
Others: Development of computer and Internet skills that are
transferable to other facets of learner's lives. Successfully completing online or computer-based courses
builds self-knowledge and self-confidence and encourages students to take responsibility for their learning.
HINDRANCES TO E-LEARNING
Unmotivated learners or those with poor study habits may fall behind
Students may feel isolated or miss social interaction Instructor may not always be available on demand Slow or unreliable Internet connections can be frustrating Managing learning software can involve a learning curve Some courses such as traditional hands-on courses can be
difficult to simulate
IN OTHER WORDS
Unmotivated learners or those with poor study habits may fall behind
E-learning offers opportunity to raise educational standards in schools
Large range of E-learning tools are available for teaching and learning
Closes the gap of “Digital Divide” Involvement of teachers and parents is important
