SUCCESS FACTORS

Fundamental Issues:

The benefits of ICT in Education must always be remembered.

E-Learning will not, nor should it, replace the teacher.

Technology is only a tool, but a very powerful one. E-Learning is about the

effective integration of technology into education to enhance the

teaching/learning process.

Stakeholders in the learning community are all potential learners.

Access the right information (relevance), from any place at any time.

Learning Outcomes must be integrated within the learning process.

Interaction, communication and collaboration are most significant to the

teaching/learning process.
