OVERVIEW :

E-learning incorporates science and technology to education.

E-learning has developed very fast due to internet.

E-learning is a technology which supports teaching &learning using a computer web technology.

WHAT IS E-LEARNING :

E-Learning is the use of internet technology to enable people to learn anytime and anywhere.

WHAT DOES THE ‘E’ IN ‘E-LEARNING’ REPRESENT?

The ‘E’ used to represent ‘Electronic’ but nowadays it just signifies the use of Technology.

EDUCATIONAL APPROACHES OF E-LEARNING:

Synchronous learning Asynchronous learning

SYNCHRONOUS LEARNING: It involves the exchange of ideas and information with one

or more participants during the same period of time.

A face-to-face discussion is an example of synchronous communication.

ASYNCHRONOUS LEARNING: Asynchronous learning is learning that happens independent

of time and space.

Learners are able to interact with course materials and with each other at a time of their choosing.

A discussion thread is an example of an asynchronous learning.

SYNCHRONOUS LEARNING VS ASYNCHRONOUS LEARNING:

ADVANTAGES OF E-LEARNING:

Class work can be scheduled around work and family.

Reduces travel time and travel costs for off-campus students.

Students may have the option to select learning materials that meets their level of knowledge and interest.

(Cont.) Students can study anywhere they have access to a

computer and Internet connection.

E-Learning can different learning styles and facilitate learning through a variety of activities.

Develops knowledge of the Internet and computers skills that will help learners throughout their lives and careers

DISADVANTAGES OF E-LEARNING

Learners with low motivation or bad study habits may fall behind

Without the routine structures of a traditional class, students may get lost or confused about course activities and deadlines

Students may feel isolated from the instructor and classmates

(Cont.) Instructor may not always be available when students are

studying or need help

Slow Internet connections or older computers may make accessing course materials frustrating

Managing computer files and online learning software can sometimes seem complex for students with beginner-level computer skills

TYPES OF E-LEARNING

There are 3 types of e-learning:

1. Text Driven

2. Interactive

3. Simulation

TEXT DRIVEN

In this level, the content is simple and includes text, graphics, and some audio and simple test questions.

INTERACTIVEAn interactive e-learning course has greater use of visuals in

general (graphics, charts, diagrams)

SIMULATIONSimulation e-learning is highly interactive and relies heavily

upon graphics, video, audio and some level of gamification. Importantly, there are often custom simulations to aid in

learning acquisition, which could very well include 3D components.

Do you know that games and simulation let people learn by playing ?

TECHNOLOGY:

Technologies are used to facilitate e-learning. Most e-learning uses combinations of these techniques.

AUDIO

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 .

COMPUTERS, TABLETS AND MOBILE DEVICES

BLOGGING

Blogs allow students and teachers to post their thoughts, ideas, and comments on a website.

WEBCAMS:

The development of webcams and webcasting has facilitated the creation of virtual classrooms and Virtual learning environment.

WHITEBOARDS: Interactive whiteboards similar in use to "smart board" learning becomes interactive and engaging.

SCREEN CASTING: Screencasting is a recent trend in e-learning The advantage of such tools is that it gives the presenter the

ability to show his ideas and flow of thoughts.

VIRTUAL CLASSROOM:

Use Content ‘Chunks’

Address different learning styles

GAMIFICATION IN E-LEARNING

What is Gamification?

Gamification is visual storytelling, feedback, and visualcues. It’s a trick for the learner to play a fun game thatresults in retaining information

USES OF GAMIFICATION IN E-LEARNING

Increases user engagement

Influence behavior

Motivates participation

Help rebuild the culture into a learning machine

E-LEARNING IN PAKISTAN

UTILIZATION OF MULTIMEDIA / GRAPHICS SOFTWARE

ONLINE TEACHER OR TRAINER OR CHAT-BOARD/EXPERT SYSTEM

VIDEO CONFERENCING

CELLULAR PHONE NETWORK

Conclusion Learning is one of those things that humans do

and must do on an everyday basis. We need to bring learning to people instead of people to learning.
