What is e-learning?
Learning with the help of technology is called e-learning. Teaching, training and information delievery.
Learning over the net offers the convenience of learning at anytime and from anywhere in the world. The concept of e-learning is a transformation of internet learning into web based learning, which became Online Learning and finally e-learning.
Successful e-learning requires understanding learner needs, paying attention to research-based learner-centered design principles, and building an electronic environment that provides timely feedback, rich information, meaningful conversations, and learning-by-doing.
The main barriers to e-learning amongst the organisations interviewed were technology problems, lack of time for training, underestimation of resources required and resistance of staff to engage in e-learning as well as a negative image of e-learning, often created by suppliers.
Other learning barriers in our education systems are poor facilities, poor training, lack of commintment to both parties, i.e teachers and learners.
