INTRODUCTION TO AN ONLINE TERTIARY
SECTOR
What is E-Learning
E-Learning
is a learning process that is facilitated and enhanced by using digital tools
such as CD-ROMs, video conferencing, websites, e-mail and many more, where the
content and instruction is delivered electronically. That is what was state on my text book. I would like to add on, one of the most confusing
aspects of E-Learning is that nobody knows what it is. From my point of view the word "e" doesn't stand for "electronic" only. The word "e" in E-Learning
would be better defined as Evolving or Everywhere or Enhanced
or Extended. In my point of view, E-Learning can be defined as a learning environment supported
by continuously evolving,
collaborative processes focused on increasing individual
and organizational performance. Correct me if I'm right wrong.... :D

This model of eLearning revolves around its dependence
on courseware, delivered over the Internet to learners at a variety of

Rapid E-Learning |
Rapid eLearning uses tools such as Adobe Captivate 2 and
Adobe Presenter 6 to reduce the time it takes to produce rich, engaging Flash
learning content, while allowing more non-technical contributors, including
subject matter experts (SMEs) and students, to share their SCORM and AICC
conformant Adobe Captivate learning objects as a stand-alone Flash movie or as
an element of aultimedia portfolio that can
be securely shared within an Adobe PDF document.

Mobile Learning |
Mobile learning provides the opportunity to connect
informal learning experiences that occur naturally throughout the day with
formal learning experiences, such as those encountered in the virtual classroom
model, using games or in online learning implementations. Common tools for
producing mobile learning content include Flash rofessional, Flash
Media Server, and Flash Lite.
