E-learning • E-learning is essentially the computer and network-enabled transfer of skills and knowledge. • E-learning applications and processes include Web-based learning, computer-based learning, virtual classroom opportunities and digital collaboration. • Content is delivered via the Internet, intranet/extranet, audio or video tape, satellite TV, and CD-ROM. It can be self-paced or instructor-led and includes media in the form of text, image, animation, streaming video and audio.
- 3. • E-learning is basically any use of electronic technologies to deliver or support teaching and learning. This includes 'online learning' (which some people do use as synonymous with e-learning), but also includes the use of Powerpoint and data projectors, or even e-mail E-learning
- 4. First years (53 students) • More than 60 % students – good at MS office • More than 50 % students – web browsing • Almost all – interested in using computers for the learning process
- 5. Second years (60 students) –subject specific e-learning • More than 73 % students “applicability of acquired knowledge in your studies ”is high • Almost all – “recommend it for juniors”
