These platforms are normally located on a computer on the Internet (or an Intranet) and are typically accessed by means of a Web browser. They allow us and our students to go through the processes that what we'd expect to encounter at the average brick and mortar campus. For example: • Student Enrolment • Induction and Support • Ticking the class attendance roll • Chalk and talk combined with class discussion • Practice of skills • Assessment and accreditation.

Digital textbooks offer various interactive functions, and provide the learner with a combination of textbooks, reference books, workbooks, dictionaries and multimedia contents such as video clips, animations, and virtual reality, both at school and at home, without the constraints of time and space. In other words, digital textbooks are alive and in motion, and as such are literally “living and moving” textbooks that construct and create the knowledge not only of individual learners, but also the community, and support and manage the teaching and learning activities of teachers and learners. Learners can create their own textbooks while using the digital textbook, underlining the important parts, taking notes, and ultimately combining the contents with high- quality, reliable knowledge that is their own.
