Internet:
Greatest
impact

2.  Books and journals have found their way to
the desktops of students and research
scholars.
Thanks to the invention of electronic
resources, easy, quick and anytime access to
books and journals have made an effective
learning.
E-resources serve as a platform for random
access to multiple users at the same time and
save plenty of time.

3. E-learning
E-learning has developed very fast due to internet.
The internet and the world wide web has provided us with
easy access to information and knowledge.
E-learning is a technology which supports teaching and
learning using a computer web technology.
It bridges the gap between a teacher and a student in
different ways.
The computer-based Instruction has progressed from
usage of CD-ROM to the internet then to the web-based
instruction(WWW.)

4. E-learning
• In an on-line multimedia learning
environment:
– teaching & learning is ‘one-to-one’ (individual)
– more interactivity (in normal classroom, it varies with
the class size)
– learner-centred
– Learner monitoring & grading system

5. In a true learner-centered environment, the learner is the
beginning and end point of the learning process, and the
learner’s needs are the focus of the program.
Tools are available as the learners needs.
The instructor adjusts to the student
The quality of instruction is measured against standards
The student is an active partner in the learning process
The course is continually renewed through feedback from
learners
LEARNER CENTERED

6. LEARNER MONITORING:
 Learners learn to assess their own progress.
 Helping learners to identify the progress they have made, to
understand what they have achieved and what they need to
do next, to make progress towards their goals and
qualifications.
GRADING SYSTEM:
 In a grading system learners are placed in ability bands that
represents a range of scores.
 It reflects on individual learners performance in the form of
certain level of achievement in relation to the whole group of
learners.

7. E-learning, Web-based learning
 E-learning is mostly associated with activities involving
computers and interactive networks simultaneously. The
computer does not need to be the central element of the
activity or provide learning content. However, the computer and
the network must hold a significant involvement in the learning
activity.
 Web-based learning is associated with learning materials
delivered in a Web browser, including when the materials are
packaged on CD-ROM or other media. disk.

8. Online learning
 Online learning :is associated with
content readily accessible on a computer.
The content may be on the Web or the
Internet, or simply installed on a CD-ROM
or the computer hard disk.

9. What is E-learning?
The letter `e’ in e-learning stands for the word
`electronic’.
E-learning pioneer BERNARD LUSKIN(2001)
explains `e’ as exciting, energetic, enthusiastic,
emotional, extended and educational.
E-learning is internet-enabled learning.
It is a store house of education, information,
communication, training, knowledge and
performance management.

10. MULTIMEDIA UNIVERSITY
Benefits
• Convenient
– self-service (mix and match)
– on-demand (anytime, anywhere)
– private learning
– self-paced
– Flexibility: (modular package)

12. MULTIMEDIA UNIVERSITY
Benefits
• Consistent
– Central control of content
– Same quality of content for all
– Same quality of education for all

13. Delivery methods of e-learning
Synchronous learning
Asynchronous learning
Instructor-led group
Self-study with subject expert
Web-based: blog-Wikis-forums
Computer-based (CD-ROM)
Video/audio streaming

14. Synchronous learning
 Within synchronous learning; learning and teaching takes place
in real time (same time) while the trainer and learners are
physically separated from each other (place shift).
 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

15. Asynchronous learning
 Characteristic for asynchronous 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
 Examples include:
 self paced courses taken via Internet or CD-Rom
 videotaped classes
 stored audio/video Web presentations or seminars
 recorded audio tapes
 Q & A mentoring
 reading e-mail messages

16. Examples of synchronous learning
SYNCHRONOUS LEARNING
Telephone
Screen Sharing
Chat
Desktop Conferencing

18. Truth of e-learning
 Internet has started reshaping education.
 Education will not be the same in the next decade
Many formal universities/colleges may not
Have much attraction by the end of this
decade
There is no going back. The traditional
classroom
has to be transformed

21. Traditional & E-learning Approach
Traditional and E-learning approaches
Traditional Classroom E-Learning
Classroom • Physical – limited size
• Synchronous
• Unlimited
• Anytime, anywhere
Content • PowerPoint/transparency/etc
• Textbooks/library
• Video
• Collaboration
• Multimedia / simulation
• Digital library
• On demand
• Syn & Asyn. Communication
Personalisation • One learning path • Learning path and pace
determined by learner

22. Instructor led training
It refers to the traditional classroom training where a
teacher teaches a classroom full of students.
The problems of this training are
1. Distance: Bringing together the students under
one roof for requires time and money.
2. Audience size and response time: Same planning
is required for smaller and larger group of students in
planning, infrastructure and instructors.
3. Off the job time: working people face difficulty in
finding a replacement for their jobs.

23. Concept of e-learning
In our rapid changing world, we find it
difficult to overcome the learning
challenges and the possible
achievements.
To bridge this gap, the concepts such
as e-learning, e-teaching, e-teachers has
become the part of effective education.

24. E-teaching
 E-teaching is the appreciation of live teaching with streaming lectures, whiteboards, downloadable slide sets and discussion
forum.
 E-teaching is an automation of an existing teacher-centered educational approach
 The real work is in creating content and learning management systems that support e-learning.

25. E-teachers
 E-teachers are teachers who work in an internet environment in both regular and virtual classroom situations.
 They build new concepts of working in time and space.
 They find new learning resources as they interact with information, materials and ideas with their students and colleagues.

26. Impact of e-learning on teaching learning process
 Computer based networking system has provided the present day teacher with a choice of modern tools to deliver the goods in
the classroom and end the instructional boundaries.
 Information and communication technology in which e-learning, e-teaching, e-teachers are built in components has some
impacts on teaching learning process

27. Impacts on teaching learning process
Improves efficiency both in learning and teaching
Increases motivation
Deepens understanding
Promotes collaborate learning
Gives new approach to learning and working
Provides new ways interacting
Paves way for personality development
Increases social skills
Creates interest in learning


28. Impacts on teaching learning process

 E-Learning
 It is not a cup of web pages! It is a complex learning
environment!
 We need a possibility professionally to create our
learning materials.
 We need a professional LMS system, which is
compliment with all e-learning relevant standards.
 We need money and peoples!
 And lot of optimism 
