E-Learning Definition

E-learning for 21st Century Learning

or is term for all types of technology-

enhanced learning (TEL), where technology

is used to support the learning process

Guiding Principle

E-learning for 21st Century Learning

eLearning should always be driven by

and not the demands of technologies

themselves

PEDAGOGICAL

CONSIDERATIONS

E-learning for 21st Century Learning

Individuals learn and work in a networked environment. As a result, learners do not have control over what they learn since others in the network continually change information, and that requires new learning, unlearning old information, and/or learning current information –George Siemens (2004)

Learning is based on the premise that knowledge exists in the

world rather than in the head of an individual and learning is

not under the control of the learner. – Stephen Downes (2006)

Connectivism

A Challenge for Schools

E-learning for 21st Century Learning

The trend of e-learning has put

pressure among universities

and academic institution to

compete in an environment

where globalisation of learning is

becoming a reality through the

delivery of their

courses on the Internet.

Web 2.0

Web 2.0 is the business revolution in the

computer industry caused by the move to

the internet as platform, and an attempt to

understand the rules for success on that new

platform. Chief among those rules is this: Build

applications that harness network effects to get better the more people use them. (This is what I've elsewhere called "harnessing

collective intelligence.")

The Hallmarks of Web 2.0

American Life Project, there are six hallmarks of Web 2.0:

http://www.pewinternet.org/index.aspx

The Internet has become the computer. Tens of millions of Americans, especially the young, are creating

and sharing content online. Even more Internet users are accessing content created by

others. Many are sharing what they know and what they feel online. People are commenting and sharing their knowledge and

content online. Americans are customizing their content and online experience,

thanks to Web 2.0.

Teachers’ Suggestions to Improve

eLearning@ACT

More time allocated at the start of each semester for the students to become familiar with it.

E-learning should be made part of regular classroom

work.It's advisable to schedule elearning in our time table. More labs should be available for students to use E-

Learning.The College should stop blocking sites that are useful for

our learning materials and allow us to link these sites in

our content.

General recommendations to

improve eLearning@ACT

1. Provide faculty training for using and manipulating e-learning and especially how to design courses to work on the Moodle platform.

2. Encourage the academic departments: Business Studies, Engineering, and Information Technology to participate in developing e-learning courses in their respective specializations.

3. Collaborate with other faculty members to establish some consistent design elements within departmental courses
