Virtual Learning Environment
Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs) are web-based applications that provide educational tools and resources to support teaching and learning. VLEs are commonly used in UK higher education, with 86% of institutions reporting their use. However, VLEs have limitations, such as being focused on content over pedagogy and not meeting the needs of different subject areas well. A 2004 OECD survey found that 37% of higher education institutions had a single institution-wide VLE, while 63% had a mixture of systems. Most institutions expected to have a single VLE within 5 years due to benefits like requiring minimal changes to practice and supporting digital content and reuse.
Challenges of e-learning

Air pressure and wind
1. Air pressure is caused by the weight of air above and is highest at sea level, measured with a barometer. Wind is caused by differences in air pressure between areas of high and low pressure.
2. Low pressure systems, or cyclones, have decreasing pressure towards the center and cause inward winds and rising air, bringing clouds and precipitation. High pressure systems, or anticyclones, have increasing pressure towards the center and cause outward winds and sinking, clear air.
3. Global wind patterns are affected by uneven solar heating between the equator and poles, forming convection cells, and between land and sea surfaces, such as monsoon winds caused by seasonal offshore and onshore breezes.

Chapter+12+geologic+time
The document discusses principles of geology and geologic time. It explains that Earth's history is recorded in rock layers and fossils. Relative dating tells the sequence of events, while absolute dating using radioactive isotopes provides ages. The geologic time scale divides Earth history into eons, eras, periods, and epochs based on fossil evidence. Principles like superposition and cross-cutting relationships help determine the relative ages of rock layers.
Mountain building1
Mountain building occurs through various deformation processes depending on the forces involved. Folds form when flat rock layers are bent under compressional stress, creating structures like anticlines and synclines. Faults form when rocks fracture under tensional or compressional stresses, creating features like normal faults and thrust faults. Mountains are classified by the dominant deformation processes, such as folded mountains formed by folding and fault-block mountains formed by uplift along normal faults. Mountain building occurs at convergent plate boundaries through processes like subduction, which forms volcanic island arcs and deformed continental crust.
Deserts
Deserts are defined as areas that receive less than 25 cm of rainfall per year and cover 30% of the Earth's surface, located between 30 degrees north and south of the equator. Deserts form due to convection cells that cause air to descend and dry out land in these areas, as well as from rain shadows where mountains block moisture from reaching land on the other side. Common landforms in deserts include ephemeral streams, alluvial fans, and playa lakes that form after rare rainfall events.

It also discusses the pros and cons of e-learning as well as strategies for educators to incorporate new technologies and real-world applications into engaged, self-directed student learning.
A way for blending vle and face to-face instruction by Gulden ILIN
This document discusses a study that explored blending a Teaching English to Young Learners course with both face-to-face instruction and the Moodle online platform. 100 student teachers participated in a 14-week blended course. Data was collected through a readiness scale, questionnaire, and interviews. Results found that students were ready and comfortable with online learning. They viewed the blended course positively and found it motivating and valuable for their education as language teachers. Students appreciated the flexibility to engage with course content and provide feedback to peers online in their own time.

Online Learning in K-12 Schools- APP4ChungH
This document discusses online learning in K-12 schools. It defines online learning as instruction delivered via the internet, with teachers and students separated in time or space. Online learning can expand access to education and provide course options for students. It benefits those who need supplemental courses or can't attend physical classrooms. Course management systems help organize online instruction and learning. They provide tools for lessons, assignments, assessments and communication. Online learning allows for flexible, self-paced learning and collaboration with other students. However, teachers need training and resources to design effective online courses. Both teachers and students must also have technology skills and access to fully participate in online learning.

Educ 621 Creating an Ideal Technology Environment
The document discusses 7 technologies that are essential for a K-12 classroom: 1) SMARTboards connected to computers and projectors which improve teaching effectiveness and student learning; 2) Handheld devices like iPads which increase engagement and provide multimedia access; 3) Document cameras which allow visual sharing of student work; 4) Teacher-created webpages for improved parent communication; 5) Wikis to promote collaborative learning; 6) These technologies boost classroom communication and provide access to more information for visual learners.
Blended learning - Online Learning and Traditional Learning
Blended learning can increase flexibility for learners in several ways:
- It allows learners to access course content and materials online, so they can learn anywhere at any time, not just during scheduled class meetings. This provides more flexibility over when and where they learn.
- The online components allow learners to review lectures, lessons, and materials at their own pace. They aren't constrained by the pace of the entire class.
- By moving some content online, it frees up class time that can then be used for more interactive, applied, and personalized learning activities like discussions, projects, labs, etc. This shifts the focus to applied, active learning during face-to-face meetings.

Affordances of an iPLE Network
1) The document evaluates the affordances of an iPLE (institutionally-powered personal learning environment) network in an undergraduate online course compared to a traditional VLE like Moodle.
2) Two groups were studied - a control group using Moodle and an experimental group using the iPLE network. Social network analysis found greater and more homogeneous social interaction in the iPLE group.
3) The iPLE is proposed to better enable students to contact their personal learning networks, providing more interaction facilities like instant feedback and discussions. It also helps students discover new resources through recommendations.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
