E – Learning The letter `e’ in e-learning stands for the word

`electronic’. So it is stated as “Electronic Learning”In 1963 Bernard Luskin installed the first computer

in a community college for instruction as computer assisted instruction.

E-learning pioneer BERNARD LUSKIN(2001) explains `e’ as exciting, energetic, enthusiastic, emotional, extended and educational.

It is a store house of education, information, communication, training, knowledge and performance management.

Definitions of E - LearningDarin E. Hartley ( 2001) Teaching and learning process by using internet media, intranet or other computer network in order to give the material to the students.

Matt ComercheroE-learning is a means of education that incorporates self-motivation, communication, efficiency, and technology.

Definitions of E - LearningAccording to Derek Stockley 2003The delivery of a learning, training or education program by electronic means. E-learning involves the use of a computer or electronic device (e.g. a mobile phone) in some way to provide training, educational or learning material.

According to LSDA (2005)E-learning is learning supported or enhanced through the application of Information and Communications Technology.

Features of E- LearningE-learning is dynamic: today in the era of

globalization, it helps in availing the online experts, best sources and quick approaches in a single mouse click.

E-learning is individual i.e. centered across the learner and personalized to the individual.

E-learning operates in real time that is available for 24* 7days

E-learning is comprehensiveIt is network assisted and often learning is

done within the fraction of time.Blend of learning methods such as—virtual

classroom, simulation, community and even a classroom.

ADVANTAGES•Reduced overall cost

•Learning times reduced

•Increased retention

•Consistent delivery

•On-demand availability/ Flexibility

•Expert knowledge

•Self-pacing

•Interactivity

•Confidence

•Transportation Cost and time saving

•Reducing Environmental Impact

DISADVANTAGES

•Learners need to have access to a computer as well as the Internet.

•Learners also need to have computer skills with programs such as word processing, Internet browsers, and e-mail.

•E-learning also requires just as much time for attending class and

completing assignments as any traditional classroom course.

•Students may feel isolated from the instructor

DISADVANTAGES• Slow or unreliable Internet connections can be frustrating

• Teachers' lack of knowledge and experience to manage virtual teacher-student interaction

• Lack of direct and immediate feedback from teachers

• Bias towards tech-savvy students over non-technical students

• Asynchronous communication hinders fast exchange of question

• Danger of procrastination that is to postpone or delay needlessly

Types of E-learning

us

Synchronous E-LearningSynchronous learning: learning and teaching takes place in

real time (same time) while the trainer and learners are physically separated from each other.

Examples include:listening to a live radio broadcast watching live a television broadcast audio/video conferencing Internet telephony online lectures two-way live satellite broadcast

Asynchronous E-learningAsynchronous 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.

In other words Asynchronous e-learning where people are not online at the same time and interaction does not occur without a time delay, allowing people to participate on their schedules.

Examples include:self paced courses taken via Internet or CD-ROMvideotaped classes stored audio/video Web presentations or seminars recorded audio tapes Q & A mentoring reading e-mail messages

Improves efficiency both in learning and teaching

Increases motivationDeepens understandingPromotes collaborate learningGives new approach to learning and

workingProvides new ways interactingPaves way for personality developmentIncreases social skillsCreates interest in learning

Impacts on Teaching Learning Process

Helpful for self-evaluationWide reach and consistentUser convenientFlexible and rich medium for students

Useful tool to address students with different learning and cognitive styles

Self-pacing for slow and quick learners, reduces stress and increases satisfaction.

Future of E-learning

CONCLUSION

E-learning is not intended to replace conventional methods and learning in classroom. Its aim is to create an augmented learning environment where technology is used to deliver a combined range of teaching and learning techniques aimed at maximizing the individual’s participation and achieving the goals in the learning and teaching process as a greener world.
